Social Media Manager: Finding Your Dream Job via Twitter

My Twitter story is about connections and new opportunities. I had been in the tech consulting industry for a couple of years when I started my blog www.socialnerdia.com to explore the convergence of tech, marketing, and social media. I wanted to learn about people I admired so I started to reach out to them. On Twitter. I soon started interviewing them via email, video, and a podcast. Most of the people I interviewed agreed to do so via Twitter.

Nomination from @adventuregirl : http://twitter.com/invisiblepeople

I nominate http://twitter.com/invisiblepeople . An inspiration for the spirit, the soul, and incredible depths of interest on all levels. From being homeless himself on the streets- to taking on social media to tell other people's stories- this sweet soul gives others the voice they don't have on the streets. The true meaning of using Twitter and the power of social media to create a voice for change.

How Twitter helps me answer questions

During my time in China I had brought my iphone from Canada to China hoping to use it.  Unfortunately when I inserted the PRC SIM card I kept getting errors.  My boss promptly (and while mobile) posted the problem to Twitter seeking answers. Almost immedietely we started receiving tweets from people on the problem.  It was amazing to see the immediate response and get my question answered quicker and more accurately than Google search.  The answer was that no, I could not use my iPhone, but I found my new Wikipedia through the experience.
