I'd love to talk about how my promotion of yams through social media (and unemployment) led me to a job working for Bruce's Yams.

Thank you Bill! I appreciate the reminder. My sister-in-law, who is an orthopedic surgeon in Phoenix and is rarely on social media, sent me at text
message this week saying I must watch a speech Cory gave. I started watching it on CSPAN, Firefox crashed, and I never went back to finish. He IS a great example. His humble candor is refreshing.

Check out Newark mayor Cory Booker. @corybooker is an authentic voice who uses Twitter to connect with constituents, answer questions and solve problems.

As you know, I share your interest in politicians leveraging social media to dialogue and build community. There are relatively few that use it for much more than push messaging, and none I’m aware of that actually manage an integrated social media presence.
