Why not multiple tweets, one of which has the mentions? We don't send out enough tweets anyway IMHO, and it's a good way to personally yet publicly acknowledge them.

Article looks good, while I watched it from home (it was one of those days sadly) I loved how the speakers actually had wildly different views at times which has not always been the case for these events (which is not required :) I enjoyed those too ). SM Comments inline

Looks great!  Do we want to include the speakers' twitter handles so that they retweet it to their followers? If so, here they are: @PamelaSamuelson @LilaBaileyLaw @dreamword @melvingibbs @yanatweets

Feel free to leave me out if you run out of characters. I'll retweet it regardless. :)


Hmm, I give some options below (even without mentioning you it's too long without adjustment) but I'd actually stay away from mentions given how many there are. I just think the tweet itself starts to become so cluttered it's hard to use and understand for the average reader. That would end up with 5-6 different links in the tweet which is pretty rough.
