Getting LinkedIn

So I created a LinkedIn Account to promote myself on a professional level, and I have to say that I am really enjoying this site. I'm connecting with people I knew, and some I didn't know, for possible business ventures and it's very exciting! Link up with me and join the business party!

A few tip resources I would recommend for using LinkedIn:

Twitter Followers: Quality vs. Quantity

I do believe that when it comes to Twitter followers, it's QUALITY over QUANTITY. While it is important to have a large following, what's the point of following someone who doesn't "tweet with substance"? I would rather follow those who actually have something interesting to say. Some of my favorite tweeters include:
@WomenInPR1
@DesignTwit
@MelissaOnline
@GoodGirlPR
@AnjeMiami
Since starting my "professional" Twitter earlier this year, I've gained around 30 followers. I haven't been as engaging as I should be over the past few weeks, but trust that will be changing!
