1- #MiFiMon- a discussion hosted by some pretty incredible minds in the microfinance world! Next one is this Monday-July 20 from 12pm-2pm CST. Always impressed.

2- @imaginethistv. A new approach to reality television. Check em out.

It was not my intent to be the final say on a list of Twitter chats or appear as if I was copying her or anyone else. It was, and is, my intent to help others find a community of like-minded individuals in Twitter through Twitter chats. Building relationships and community is important to me.

Thank you for letting TwiTip readers know of ANOTHER list, really. But the posts and lists are different, and neither author can claim to deserve credit for a list of things they didn’t even create themselves. It’d be like creating a list of all the cars that Chrysler ever made in the 80’s and then when someone creates a list of all the cars they ever made in the 80’s and 90’s, having to “give credit” to the person who made the first list. It’s kind of silly, don’t you think? I mean credit is due when it’s due, and had he made an obvious copy of the other list verbatim I’d agree with you… but that’s simply not the case.

Hashtags continue to be the most confusing aspect of twitter for most new users. Yet – you’re right – are so important in finding a community on twitter.

We’ve also recently launched a Conference/ Live Event Suit with tons of fabulous new features helping create relevant conversation and community around any event. http://twubs.com/twubseventsinfo And this really is just the beginning for us. We have tons on our development roadmap ahead!

Thanks again for compiling all this great information into one post. Such an incredibly important topic for relevancy. Teach on, good sir!

I forgot one other item, if you a running a chat – you can create a party (or other-size/type of grid) and can click the “Full URL” or “Short URL” at the top of the page and then tweet it out from tweetgrid. Just be sure and do this without your username the right hand column (that’s for the participant to put their username in so they can see their replies and mentions). This allows potential participants to be sure to follow the host and guest so they don’t miss questions and answers. You can also copy and past it into an email, facebook link or Tweet and invite people to join your chat using tweetgrid.

I usually remind people during our chat to put their username & password in so tehy can tweet, put their username into the right column so they can see their @replies and mentions and to remember to use search & stop to cotrol flow of tweets – as we often get folks new to tweetgrid.

@EzyBlogger, @macafarian, @rlbates, @tanyaryno, @spkrinteractive Thanks for the positive feedback & glad you enjoyed it.

@paen Glad you learned about Tweetchat

@Nikhil Vaswani looks like an interesting book, will have to check it out. Have to see my LinkedIn skills are fairly basic.

@miketempleton Really enjoy wtHashtag’s compilation of twitter stats & information for chats.

@philipnowak yes, tinychat should be included. I forgot it. Is there an option in Tinychat to make the text larger? I’m sure there is. Video conferencing is great too yet my experience with large corporations is that most do not have the capabilities on their desktops to particpate. Skype is not even considered in those companies yet. I deal with large health & dental insurance companies & we had to move away from video conferencing, screen sharing & live video streaming in order to accomodate our participants. I expect they’ll get there eventually.

@CathyWebSavvyPR U provided some gems about using Tweetgrid. Those are going in my keeper file. Thanks for adding to the conversation.

@thandelike Oops, didn’t mean to leave off your Friday chat. Glad you added it in the comments. Pls make sure you add it to @spkrinteractive’s Google Doc list of Twitter chats too.
