After meeting Denise Quashie @DQTweets on Twitter in the #Eventprofs tag, we found ourselves collaborating on a few projects. This presentation is our latest collaboration.
We created and presented at Geekend 2010 in Savannah, GA. We also proposed this topic for South by Southwest and while we didn't make it through the panel picker, I hope somehow by the magic of the interweb that we have an opportunity to share this presentation at SXSW and other conferences.

A. Here is a great description: "Twitter chat is a guided conversation where users interested in a particular topic hop onto the service to chat.

In an effort to give back, Social Media Tulsa has teamed up with the Salvation Army Tulsa @SalArmyTulsa for #Tweet4Toys. A holiday toy drive that will allow Tulsa's social media enthusiasts to participate in the annual toy drive in a fun way.
