If you’re an author or publisher and still aren’t sure if the whole Twitter thing is for you, a couple of new resources may help demonstrate the value it can deliver.

Last week I was interviewed by Kirk Biglione, a digital publisher and new media consultant, about Twitter and the book trade people who are using it. You can listen to a recording of that interview.

Kirk has also put together a short video presentation that explains how Twitter is like the best cocktail party you’ve ever attended, and how authors and publishers can use it to their advantage.

If you’ve been a hold-out, now is the time to join the Twitter party. It’s probably different — and better — than you think. Look me up at @jennifertribe and say hello. Let’s start a conversation.

Be Sociable, Share!
