Have you ever wanted to connect to others in the plus size community on Twitter?  I have been lucky to find quite a few individuals via this growing social media outlet.  At this point I have found more people in other states than I have locally, but thats ok because sooner or later local plus sizeers will joing the party. Yesterday on Twitter is the day that user recommend other users  it is called #followfriday.  An example of some of the people I have been introduced to via follow friday.   @plussizefromC @BellaFierce @fullsizebarbie @CassyJ @TheCurvySpot @phyaflyjones @fatandfabchic @philli @plusmodelrocky.

The great thing about these individuals and the others that I have followed and follow me on my page @GlenL is that each page represents an individual voice and point of view in the curvy community.  A surprise development is how businesses have leveraged Twitter to reach directly to their customers.  For those of us that have a deep hatred for outsourced customer service this is a blessing.

The best part about follow friday on Twitter is being introduced to new followers all the time.  Their has not been a week to go by that I have not met someone new which leads to me finding a new website or blog to bookmark and add to my ever growing list of newsfeeds.

I know there are still many people out there that still don't see the point of social networking, but if you are trying to expand your personal brand or business going to were the customers are can be a very valuable tool.  I have enjoyed meeting all of the diverse individuals and learning things that I may or may not have learned if not for social networking.
