I want to point you toward what is becoming the definitive resource about Twitter and microblogging in general: Pistachio Consulting and the Touchbase Blog. Disclosure: I am an occasional volunteer contributor to Touchbase and I happen to have a lot of respect for the team that Laura @Pistachio Fitton has pulled together there.

I may be biased due to my involvement with Pistachio Consulting, but I’ve also seen the work that’s going on behind the scenes, so I can say with authority that this is (and will continue to be) the place to keep up to speed about microblogging. In addition to the regular blog posts and coverage of what’s going on out there, Pistachio is also creating longer, more detailed guides (eBooks) for business and individuals. You’re going to want to check them out.

Go check out Touchbase! And, if you or your organization needs help on how to use microblogging tools well and to meet your goals, Pistachio Consulting specializes in just that practice. Check it out.

I’m Mark Dykeman and I approve this blog post.
