Here are the all new and improved chat guidelines, if you would like to join us. I hope you will.
My co-moderator, Meryl K. Evans, has written two very helpful blog posts on Twitter Chats (one here and another here). To get the most out of them, read them at least an hour before our chat begins. You might want to test drive some of her suggested online tools. You can check out her list of Twitter Chats here.
Reminder: No #platformchat on Friday, July 3rd. We'll resume, Friday, July 10th. More TBA.
Our two guests for Friday, June 26th at 11 a.m. Pacific Time (12 MT, 1 CT, 2 ET) are:
