This show will offer goodies for both newbies and veterans alike, but BEFORE the show, you should get on Twitter ASAP and learn how to write in 140-character bites. That way, you'll better understand what we're talking about.
This show was inspired, in large part, because many of you have been swamping me with questions asking me how to use Twitter, especially after Dr. Scott Olson and I launched a 24-hour TwitAsYouQuit event on Jan. 16.
So join us for the Twitter Secrets program Tues., March 31 at 3 p.m. EST (or listen later, at your leisure) to learn how to join the throngs of tweeters (about 4 million now). No matter what your focus, job or mindset, Twitter can be useful for you.
To bring you up to speed -- especially journalists and authors, moms and business people -- I'm bringing you a host of hot gurus in the know.
We're going to take your questions to tell us: What would you like to know?
