I had the pleasure of being a guest speaker on Social Media Marketing for Dr. Meyer's Professional Service Firm class here at UNCW.

Inspired by Ryan's post I have been investing more time into Twitter (and am aiming to invest more still). Part of it has been really setting aside fears to try. That is, just because you can follow anyone's conversation doesn't mean you're welcome to join in. Conversely, it doesn't mean ...
