Calling All South Florida Twitters!

2009-08-17T00:58:00.000-07:00

The 2010 South Florida Twitter Calendar will showcase the area's social media community and benefit the American Cancer Society. So if you live anywhere between West Palm Beach and the Keys, the Gulf and the Atlantic -- and have an active twitter life -- please let us know! See rules below for details.

Ray Medina (@rmedina), well-known for his portrait work, will be behind the camera, design and production. Maria de los Angeles (@vicequeenmaria), freelance writer and online community developer, will help administer the project, serving as community and press liaison.

We look forward to working with you and having a lot of fun.

In the meantime, happy tweeting!

Ray & Maria
