Twitter is now essential for conference planners. We build Twitter notifications into registration notifications to capitalize on viral registration between attendees. At one technology event, we even cut our print mailings. We had more registrations from Twitter than from any email and post card notifications. Great article.

I follow limited people who are industry related....a great bit of technology and serves a useful purpose with affinity groups and even conventions. I was unable to attend The Special Event, but 'followed' people who attended this past week and got up to date info. Great use at conventions to share who 'not to miss' in breakouts, share keynote high points, restaurant recos and so much it's limitless. Smart planners who put this into place can also use this for 'shifting gears' as they follow their members in special groups who are commenting on a program as it's actually happening to 'retool' anything if needed.
