A List of Twitter Chats
Updated: 1/13/2009 – updated #sportsprchat (now weekly) – more updates coming week of 1/18
I am compiling an ongoing list of Twitter Chats that occur weekly and monthly. After participating in a handful of social media and PR related Twitter chats, I was amazed with how much I learned and how many appreciated what I had to say. Twitter chats are an extremely effective way of meeting people through Twitter that have similar interests as you do. Click here for a background on hashtags (#) and why it’s used for Twitter chats.
How to Join a Twitter Chat
Meryl Evans has an excellent post about how to join a Twitter conversation. I have personally tried all of the methods that Meryl mentions in her post, but have always preferred to use tweetchat.com. Tweetchat is simple, it does the job effectively and efficiently, and I particularly like the “smart pause” function.
I will do my best to keep this list of Twitter Groups up to date and to delete ones that are inactive. If you see any dead links, inaccurate info, or would like to add a chat , please contact me with the following information (incomplete information will be ignored):
- Name of Twitter Chat with hashtag (#)
- Subjects covered
- How often does the scheduled chat take place? Weekly or Monthly (no daily/anytime chats)
- When does the chat take place? M-Sunday
- What time is the chat? Include start time and end time (prefer EST, but please indicate time zone)
- Additional info such as website info
