  11. What Should You Tweet? • Try keeping tweets short -- 100 characters instead of 140 -- to let people add their own commentary.  “Here’s the thing: yes, tweets have a 140-character limit, but if you use up all of those characters each and every time then you will drastically reduce the odds that somebody will choose to retweet your submissions.” - Social Times

  12. What Should You Tweet? • Let your personality shine on Twitter. Tweet funny/interesting content along with the business content.
