Thanks for all the great San Diego twitter contacts and info, Julie. Your blog is a great resource for people like me who are still trying to figure the whole Twitter thing out. I have subscribed to the feed so I can refer back to it often.

Thanks, Julie. I started following some of these news media types on Twitter. Not really sure, though, how you approach them to write about your company without it seeming spammy. But just in case there's an opening, I'm following them.
