Beautiful locations for outdoor recreation across Virginia
Listorious Interview
I'd like all Twitter users in Virginia to follow me so they will be more aware and supportive of their state parks,
Yes - I have met wonderful people and learned a lot about issues I care about.
I tweet a lot about what Va State Parks are up to but work hard to just as often tweet on broader topics and relate to my followers
To show we are less an organization and more a group of committed staff who love and protect parks for the enjoyment of all.
Love, friends, purpose, nature, books, art
I created #vastateparks for a contest but it since I like to use every one of my 140 characters, I don't even use it much!
Playoutdoors and nature - we are committed to getting more people to enjoy the benefits of outdoor recreation
Less than a day. Sometimes I travel to parts of the state with poor cell service and have to go longer but I get cranky.
A way to store historical tweets
My big pet peeve is accounts who follow only a small percentage of their followers. Twitter is a dialog not a one way stream.
Generally I only use 1, 2, 4 & anything else risks misunderstanding. I'd rather remove punctuation and unnecessary words.
@RayBeckerman for sharing information on a wide variety of topics with his followers
Spammers who send repetitive DMs; porn accounts I didn't recognize as such when I followed them

My husband. I enjoy Twitter so much but he just doesn't get it.
How do you juggle your personality and your Twitter brand? - I guess that only applies to folks like me who tweet for an organization.
Yes. We tweet all our events ten days out in 5 tweet chunks. It can be bad in the summer. I try to make up for it with personal tweets.
Complete their profiles! I like to know something about people I follow and I try to follow everyone back.
Updates on programs, events, facilities and issues on Virginia State Parks and share info on outdoor rec, nature and the environment.
@EpicChange and @MamaLucy and her school, through the #tweetsgiving campaign
The excitement of reaching more people to talk about our state parks. I really believe in what we do!
