Fun, because it is the "water cooler" of the online world and educational because of the fantastic info people link to in their tweets. I'd love to have a thousand followers and following just as many (http://twitter.com/scotherrick). And following Jason is a perfect example of this cool blend of personal, professional and networking that drives the good things from Twitter. Twitter has been both fun and educational.

Lindsey told me the same thing again this week and so I thought there must be something to this tweeting thing. As you can see, I followed your advice…finally.

I don't think of it as a promotional tool, although it certainly can't help but be that. I use twitter to find out what other people in the job search field are up to. It's one-stop window shopping. I follow people I trust to know what's going on, and it saves me tons of time because they do a lot of work that I can then, well... follow. And I try to do the same for those who follow me. Happy Tweeting! I think of Twitter as a tool for sharing info, which saves me a lot of time. I don’t think of it as a promotional tool, although it certainly can’t help but be that.

I post open jobs on Twitter and network with other corp recruiters from some big name companies. It's a great way to follow your next potential hiring manager and gain some insider info that you wouldn't otherwise find on a corp website. Following YOU Jason is a fabulous idea. You always post such useful links to news articles, blog posts and other insightful info on the web. Saves me an enormous amount of web surfing to just follow your tweets :-) http://twitter.com/heathergardner Tweet tweet… I post open jobs on Twitter and network with other corp recruiters from some big name companies.
