How to get started with Twitter- for Printers (Part 1)

A few days ago I posted this little blog piece titled, “Printers on Twitter” about how there was a lack of printers and prepress industry folks on this popular micro-blogging site, in comparison to the number of graphic designers. We got a reply from a 25-year print-shop owner (newspapers books & magazines) whom asked:

“Boy am I out of touch on Twitter! I do have a profile but I was unaware that you could create a page like Yagottaprint.com. How do I do this? Can I impose on you for advice in utilizing Twitter?”

The answer can be seen in this, the first of a several part video tutorial by Markzware, the makers of FlightCheck preflight software, on how printers and people in the print media industry can get involved with Twitter, actively get into the community and benefit from this exercise in the form of real-hard-business. This is an excellent resource for showing how printing industry members can participate in social networking.
