Our first blog post about Twitter came from Deb Yemenijian, a trusty Schubert PR Exec., almost exactly two years ago (Twitterpated, May 17th, 2007). But, only within the past few months has a true Twitter explosion occurred – jumping to more than 9.3 million users and the third most used social network (behind Facebook and MySpace).

Many Schubert team members have found Twitter useful to build relationships with editors, prospects, clients and peers. I personally have found it a great research tool. Twitter is my new google (in some cases).

I’d love to hear how you are using Twitter – please comment. I’d also like to take this opportunity to formally introduce the Schubert staff who tweet regularly. Join the conversation and follow us!
