I gave a short Twitter for business demonstration this morning at the InnoTech Oklahoma 2008 conference. My title for the presentation was “Twitter: Time Drain or Great Business Tool.”
Aside from the obvious seven points presented. I stressed the importance of understanding people’s behaviors and actions, because no matter what happens to Twitter years down the road, behaviors will be the same.
I’ve posted my slides below. They aren’t quite the same without the commentary but I think you’ll get the idea.

Great presentation, Chris – simple, informative, clear and entertaining. I’m sure, with you presenting, it was even better.
have you had much response? Positive? Otherwise?!?
Keep Cooking!

Thanks Andrew.
The setup for the presentation was 15 minutes of presentation and 15 minutes designated for questions. So the questions added a lot to the content as well.
All of the responses were very positive. I was surprised to see such an eclectic group of people, all interested in Twitter for slightly different reasons.
I was discussing this earlier today, twitter is what you make it and that defines your network.
If you build a time wasting network thats what you will get, if you build a business network thats what you will get.
It can drive real business value if you want it to, but equally the opposite. Up to you.
It’s nice to see a great post about Twitter and social networking every now and again. Thanks for an excellent read!
