Some people don’t know what twitter is or maybe they do but they don’t understand why anyone would want to post everything they are doing or read what everyone else is doing. Some people just don’t “get it”. I usually try to explain it to someone only to hear “why would anyone do that?” or “I don’t have time for that”.
Well, this post will show you why twitter rocks.
I’ve been looking to take a trip back to Hawaii with my bride since there have been some great deals on hotels and such down there with the down economy. The only thing there hasn’t been great deals on is airfare. From Atlanta, the tickets usually hover around $850 per person roundtrip. So that would be about $1,700 just in airfare! Ouch!
That’s where twitter came in…and boy did it pay off! Here’s how I snagged 2 roundtrip tickets to Hawaii for LESS than the cost of a single ticket!

Here’s an extremely simple way of finding profiles of CEOs on Twitter. All this does is search the twitter.com website for the exact phrase “bio ceo”. So if on the user’s profile they have CEO listed beside their Bio it wil show in the Google results. I know it’s not perfect, but this is an easy way to find and follow numerous CEOs.

If you want to find Bios of CEOs on twitter as well as Presidents of companies, use this search query:
