		<description>Marco, I&#039;m starting to see tangible benefits from Twitter as well. I&#039;m going to have to learn about TweetDeck and some of the many other Twitter tools that are available so I can really take advantage of the learning and networking opportunities that are there.</description>

		<description>I have accounts with LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. Fortunately, there is enough room in my heart for all of them. Lately, however, Twitter (using TweetDeck) is winning; both my personal and professional networks are expanding. For me, Twitter impacts enhances my capacity and serves as an invaluable learning community.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve managed to come up with a great system that seems to be working out nicely....I use Facebook for my real life friends and Twitter is strictly my business networking tool.  Keeping the two worlds separate has made them each easier to manage.  I absolutely heart Twitter.</description>

		<description>I whole heartedly agree with you on all points.  I, too, log into Facebook at least once a day.  Although mainly I use it for friends, I love feeling like I am part of a greater &quot;something&quot;.  Especially when you work from home and it gets a little lonely.  :o)  Now I don&#039;t feel so disconnected.  As for Twitter, not yet sold on it either.    I think I will just stay with what works and for me it&#039;s Facebook.  

As always, great post Janet!</description>
