Must Follow Twitter Accounts for Radio Air Talent
In the recent Content Ideas article, 7 Reasons Twitter Should Be Part of Your Strategy, I say that Twitter is a resource for show prep. After reading that, Steve Kramer of That Guy Kramer, Play 98.7/Tampa, made a request that I send out a list of accounts jocks should follow on Twitter.
So I treated him the same way you treat your requests. I said “Yeah, yeah, I’ll get that on for you.” And then I did.
