Takeaways:

• Hashtags are a great feature for identifying tweets & increasing search accuracy (visit Hashtags.org for ideas of some of the most popular hashtags)
• TweetDeck and HootSuite are helpful tools for managing tweets, followers, direct messages, and more!
• TwitScoop, TweetMeme and Twendz are useful apps to find out what’s “hot” and trendy in Twitter at any moment
• URL Shorteners (TinyURL, bit.ly, owl.ly) are a great way to make the best of URLs within your Tweets – allowing you to direct followers to full text elsewhere (e.g. a blog or website)
• Attend TweetUps! When you meet and interact face to face, it’s like you’re already old friends!

WEGO Health would like to send out a huge thank you to Shwen for joining us and sharing all of his incredible Twitter expertise - we all learned something new!
