Description
The author of "Twitterville - Using Global Neighborhoods to thrive in tough times."The pace of communications accelerates, from print to email to Facebook to Twitter. Shel Israel, an expert on social networking, believes that the hypercompacted messaging of Twitter "lets people behave online almost exactly how they behave in real life," as everyday chat expands into a network of trust. The difference is, he writes on his blog Global Neighbourhoods, "may be the world's largest and fastest growing small town." And this is a community that businesses and politicians (witness Obama) can tap into effectively. He expands on the ideas in his new book, Twitterville at this event.
