Scott Gerber, whose article “8 Ways Entrepreneurs Can Get More Out of Twitter” is featured on Mashable.com, asked a panel of young, successful entrepreneurs how other entrepreneurs can utilize Twitter to their advantage.  They advised:

• Twitter is a social tool — interact and be social, find out what customers want or need
• Avoid insecurity work — limit Twitter time to less than half an hour a day
• Engage with your followers — converse about their lives, don’t market
• Set up an Autoresponder
• Provide value — get software like Tweet Adder to help
• Provide relevant information — create genuine dialogue + interaction
• Be personal and interesting — retweet interesting links, useful articles + photos
• Follow Twitter etiquette: listen, be relevant, mind your brand, engage, give more than you get
