There may be repetition here, but I found many of the Tweets from our Digital Symposium to be really informative little nuggets. Look at it this way, you’re skimming through your favorite magazine and everything you find is pretty good, but then you find that refrigerator article that is so helpful you have to clip it out and put it up for all to see. I hope you find it here. (Hint: Read from the bottom up to see tweets in chronological order.)
