A Note to Readers
from Ann Handley
Chief Content Officer

What's New, and Who Should You Follow on Twitter?

I have two new (and new-ish!) things to remind you of this week:

1. We've introduced a new "Members Only" section of the site to give our paid members an At-A-Glance view of the Premium marketing resources at their fingertips.

Check out this area, which includes Premium How-to Articles, Exclusive Case Studies, Online Seminars, and more. We hope this section will be a little like the club lounges the major airlines offer during travel — an immediate place to get what you are looking for.

2. Whenever we run an article on Twitter on MarketingProfs, I always get a ton of emails from readers who want to jump in, but aren't sure who to follow. They ask me, "So who should I be following there?" Mack Collier's lead article this week on Twitter reminds me that there's a Twitter directory tool called TwitDir that offers a searchable interface for Twitter power users. Also, Guy Kawasaki's Alltop, which is a sort of digital "magazine rack" of popular topics, has a shelf devoted to the "Twitterati." (And yes, I'm on it — follow me at twitter.com/marketingprofs.)

Thanks for stopping by, and as always, your feedback is always welcome!
