I went to her tweet and found her response to you on April 10th: “@rnlanders To your questions..you can use Twitter to form a twibe around i/o issues or set up a social network on Ning.com.”

I think that partially answered my question. Forming twibe (Twitter groups) is one thing but it seems like there are different ways to engage. My question is how to leverage the power of virtual connections via Twitter and using that to drive further engagement and involvement to and on a website/blog.

I agree with you, this continues to be an exciting and developing area, one that I hope I-O’s will closely follow and become more involved in.

Finally, I want to say a big “Thank You” again for tweeting from the SIOP conference in Atlanta. Although I wasn’t physically there, following and interacting with your tweets made me feel that I was!

Steve

Hopefully this blog/twitter is a good example! Also – I hope you got a good answer from @Andreasg411 on Twitter about social media + blogging. I think it would have been a little too complicated for the SIOP audience (at least for now!).

I enjoy and appreciate you summarizing your thoughts. If you are attending, I’m looking forward to hearing about Friday’s 4:30 pm Special Event: Do you Tweet? Social Media + Implications for I-O Psychology. Makes me feel like I’m “there” via Twitter and Blog. Thanks again Richard for opening my eyes (through our LinkedIn discussion) about the usefulness of Twitter.
