The Top 7 #Startup Tweets of the Week

Zach Davis Jul 23, 2012 Tweet

Twitter is a conversation.  Twitter is an RSS feed.  Twitter is inspiration.  Twitter is the pulse.

Twitter is different things to different people.  One of the reasons @TechCocktail loves Twitter so hard is for insightful business discourse – and naturally we want to share what we enjoy.  Every Monday, we’ll be bringing you the top seven startup-related tweets of the past week.

Are you sharing valuable (or occasionally whimsical) business insight?  Follow Tech Cocktail on Twitter and use the #TC7 hashtag when talking startups.  We’ll find you.
