What is the coolest thing that you have found or has found you via Twitter?

I ask because I have had some cool PR folks approach me saying they found me on twitter. Anything with you guys?

Turns out that most of his company's clients are big names - Chicago Tribune, Visa - that caliber of clientele. Still, he was more than generous with his time, giving me advice and tips and offering to work with me even for a small amount of time to fit in to my small budget. He really extended himself for someone who couldn't bring much profit to him at all. That's my heartwarming Twitter story. :); ▶ Reply to This

I bought it within minutes of reading the review. :) I'm hoping this doesn't happen too often.

Great subject!

Thanks!

I've found through word of mouth (not 'direct' advertising tweets) so many good software/services (Evernote.com is my fav!) plus I've reconnected with customers from my old scrapbook store.; ▶ Reply to This

My name as someone's logo.
