Why should you consider participating in Twitter Chats? Twitter is a social network, which means that you should be interacting with other people and brands.

One of the best ways to have a conversation and meet new like-minded Twitter users is by joining Twitter chats. These chats use a #Hashtag to help participants engage with each other and keep the discourse going.

Lorraine and her guest Carol Stephen connected online during one of these chats. While these two women have never met face to face they feel as if they know each other because of the #DigiBlogChat held every Tuesday at 4:00 PM Eastern time.

Listen to their conversation and then mark your calendar to join the chat next Tuesday.
