For those in any doubt about the usefulness of Twitter, here's a small cross-section of South Wales tweets from yesterday afternoon.
They're from a range of organisations and they're all very worthwhile - and I'll try to explain why after each.
Crucially, they all talk directly to their audience (or 'followers') and importantly they all lead to useful info.
Ignore Twitter at your peril.
Tweeter South Wales Police
Twitter name swpolice
Tweet Officers Seize Fireworks http://fb.me/Epte419i
Useful because It links to a news item about advice on storage, underage sales and the anti-social elements of Guy Fawkes Night. Good PR, good public info.
Tweeter Cardiff Business Online
Twitter name CardiffBiz
Tweet Any FREE DESSERT when you order a starter and a main course at Mocka Lounge with the voucher here http://ow.ly/33hBa
Useful because It links to a hot eating out offer - and hopefully a few extra sales.
Tweeter Swansea University Students Union
Twitter name SwanseaUnion
Tweet Taking action for broke and broken postgraduate students! http://fb.me/tqb3MrtV

Tweeter Wales In Style
Twitter name WalesInStyle
Tweet Andy Fisher is the 3rd person to Pack His Bags to WIN a stylish break in Wales. Enter now - http://ow.ly/33joF
Useful because It links to a promotional competition, creating strong PR, customer interaction and a little bit of fun.

Business show lures Swansea media folk ... and others!
Well done to Swansea radio blogger Mike Leahy for his efforts in staging the Swansea Business Show 2010.
It took place on Friday at the LC and brought out a few notable media individuals.
They included the South Wales Evening Post business reporter Rupe "The Scoop" Hall, editions of the new-look Carmarthenshire Life magazine and a dynamo from further east, Prabhjote Chada.
The latter is an interesting fella, new to many on the Swansea media circuit.
He seems to have more energy than the National Grid and more ideas than a Government think-tank.
In media terms, he's involved with community broadcaster Radio Cardiff. He broadcasts on the subjects to business and gadgets-made-simple ... and he's doing a good job by all accounts.
Prab's also launched Cardiff Business Online, a directory with a difference. Check out the funky logo right here.
An honourable mention, too, for others listed in the show's guidebook.
They all helped to stage a colourful and varied show. Well done on all your efforts ... and don't forget where to come if you need to publicise your enterprise further - or if you need writing or newsletter services of any description.
They included: AIMS Accountancy for Business, Aquatherm Plumbing and Heating, Atech Graphics, Barry Training Services, Beach Software, Biz Mobiles, BNI, BCS Media, Business Sense, Call Catchers, Celtic Wine, Chwarae Teg, Clickbridge, Costco, Colourbox, Compare Wales, CTS Engineering, Davies and Co accountants, Dragon Innovation, Dividend Training, Dylan Thomas Experience, Dynamic Rock, E-crime Wales, 4 Networking, the Federation of Small Businesses, Flexible Support for Small Business, Giles Insurance, Green Dragon Energy, Inspiration, IntroBiz, ISO in a Box, Jakson Lee, LEAD Wales, Life Photography, Mac Guru Wales, Noremac Hygiene, NFU Mutual Insurance, Photographs Of, Ramada Jarvis Hotel, SIFE Bright Futures, Star in a Jar, Stupid Tuesdays, Swansea Business College, Swansea College, Swansea University American Football team, Sue Preston Hypnotherapy, Taybarns, Teimlo, Total Building Controls, Trevor Lewis Signs, Utility Warehouse, Valley design, Veritas Language Solutions, The Steven Williams Practice, the Welsh Business Show, Wolfestone Translation and the Zaal restaurant.
