I dismissed Twitter as just another inane idea for those who have nothing better to do than bore us with every detail of their lives. But after being encouraged to give it a try, I'm hooked. And so are firms like CNN, The New York Times, and the BBC. This is a communications tool you can't afford to ignore.
Twitter is a simply a place where YOU "follow" those YOU decide to follow. When you follow a person or company in Twitter, you are going to get their Twitter feed. In the case of our feed, you will get news and information related to 401k retirement plans and the 401k industry. And best of all, its FREE.
Try it out with our feed, then add some of the additional feeds we've noted below to create a powerful information tool.
To help you use Twitter, here are some resources:
