Twitter and Communication

In my roles as 'Farm News Coordinator' for The Farmer's Cow (www.thefarmerscow.com) and Facilitator/Educator for Integrative Therapies Wellness and Education Center (www.itwellnesscenter.com) as well as an assortment of other communication and pr responsibilities, I am continually fascinated by the plethora of social media which offer boundless opportunities for interesting networking.

I began using Twitter approximately three months ago. If you are not familiar with Twitter.com, you should take a look at it. What I have found most fascinating is that I can communicate with people around the world. Both 'famous' and not so famous folks are online and very regularly review and answer their 'tweets.'

One of the most interesting aspects of Twitter is that each 'tweet' is limited to 140 characters. Your writing (especially for business questions) must be very succinct.

What if politicians were limited to 140 characters when they answered constituents questions?
