Steps to Joining #adminchat

What is a Twitter chat?
A Twitter chat (or tweet chat) is an online discussion using twitter, so every post is a tweet. Because it’s on Twitter, its open to everyone with a Twitter account. Anyone can participate, or just listen in to learn more about the topic.
How Do I Participate?
Step 1: If you don’t already have a Twitter account, sign up at www.twitter.com. Make sure you change your picture from the default egg so you don’t look like too much of a newbie.
Step 2: You can search for “#adminchat” on Twitter and follow the chat there, but there are other web sites that make it much, much easier. Our favorite is TweetChat. Go to www.TweetChat.com and sign in using your twitter name and password, then click Authorize
Step 3: Search for “adminchat” and click Go. This will take you to a page with every tweet including the #adminchat hashtag. Here you can “listen in” on the chat or participate with your own tweets. When you tweet, TweetChat has a bonus feature that it automatically adds the #adminchat hashtag to the end of your tweet.
Step 4: Start chatting!
For more information on Twitter chats and other tools you can use, you may want to read this post from TwitTip. To see all updates from Executive Secretary about up and coming #adminchats follow @lucybrazier on Twitter or join the Executive Secretary Magazine LinkedIn group.
Our selected chat style is multiple numbered questions. Questions are submitted by you, our participants and numbered. So for example, you might ask the first question and label it Q1
All discussion related to this question should then be labelled A1 in order to keep track of each topic for the followers
Any question or comment goes, as long as it’s related to our topic - Dealing with Cold Callers.
While the focus is on our host, we are very happy for you to share your thoughts on the questions as well.
Join us on Thursday 2nd February 2012 at 10am PST/1pm EST/ 6pm GMT/ 7pm CET.
To take part, mark the date, time and this link in your diaries. Then simply log back into www.tweetchat.com on Thursday and start chatting with Angela Garry and colleagues from all over the world.
We look forward to seeing you there.
