Our Road to Macstock series continues with one of the most unique topics to be presented there. Jean MacDonald explains what microblogging is, and how it can be used from a productivity perspective. No topic is too broad or too narrow; Jean has some examples of her own to share, and explains why you may already be microblogging without even knowing it. She will help you harness the power of yet another communication channel that is much easier to manage than the others.
