Business name: check. Business email: check. Business website: check. Business Twitter account? Um, eh, well...
Social networking can be overwhelming. Between Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, this new form of networking and marketing can be confusing and time consuming, but I'm telling you: it's worth the effort.
Each Tuesday, I'm going to share with you a sampling of some New Jersey companies, organizations and entrepreneurs who have embraced Twitter and made the social networking site work well for them.

Twitter has helped me find people interested in what I sell (European bead bracelets and accessories), as well as chat with other online retailers. I also use Twitter to send out quick updates about new items and promotions in my eBay store.
