If You So Much As Twitter This
Posted on 20. Aug, 2008 by Chi-chi Ekweozor in Trends
I’ve been reflecting on the phenomenal interest in Twitter of late. From Dell’s 40+ Twitter team to a Social Brand Index that lists the brands on the microblogging service du jour, it seems like there’s no escaping the Twitter addiction. And this despite a recent decision to axe outgoing SMS updates to Twitter users in the UK.
It’s incredible how much groundswell is gathering around a service that is barely two years old.
Twitter’s main devotees in the UK are early adopters and PR types. Very smart PR types I must add.
If any of those are reading this, cast your eye over this brilliant article on the 13 Skills of the Public Relations Pro of the Future by John Bell of OgilvyPR. Thanks for the credit, John!

Posted on 20. Jun, 2008 by Chi-chi Ekweozor in Events

I didn’t get a chance to blog this yesterday, got in late after attending and presenting at the extremely interesting QuickFire event at Manchester’s Circle Club.
QuickFire is the b.TWEEN conference’s take on Pecha Kucha presentations and you can find out more info about them here. You can also watch the videos from all the events at b.TWEEN on their YouTube page. The webcast is here.
I’ll put my slides up on Slideshare over the weekend. Follow today’s (and yesterday’s) events on Twitter by tracking the #btween and #btween08 Twitter hash tags using summize.com. You can also check out a pretty impressive preview here at Conference 2.0.
Now onto the Day 1 highlights… (You can also check out Day 2’s highlights)
