My very first twitter was on August 15th and it said: I am not understanding the appeal of Twitter. I just didn’t understand how a service that only provided facebook-like status updates would be a good use of my time.

I’ve been tagged by Liz Fuller of More Than WE Know. Liz is a business development specialist focusing on Women Entrepreneurs.
I’ve always wanted to do a meme (rhymes with dream) because it’s a great way to network with people.
So here are the rules:
1) Link to the person who tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
2) Share 7 facts about yourself.
3) Tag 7 random people and include links to their blogs.
4) Let each person know they have been tagged and comment on their blog.

I haven’t had the chance to speak to an audience of thousands since then so don’t ask me if I am still nervous about it.
