I'm hoping to get Tony (@zappos) - the CEO of Zappos, someone from @JetBlue, & possibly Woot! (@woot) or Gary Vaynerchuk (@garyvee) to be on the panel. Welcome your suggestions for whom you'd like to see on this panel. My background: I helped launch @DellOutlet & have been coordinating and driving Dell's Twitter strategy, so I expect to share all I can from my experience. I am now a Community Program Manager on Dell's Global Online Team. Would love to chat with you if you have any suggestions/recommendations for this panel: @ggroovin Thanks!

Ricardo, it would be awesome if you could get Tony of Zappos. Mr. Twitter himself. Also, someone from Whole Foods--they seem pretty active these days.

*********** UPDATE! *********** Morgan Johnston from @JetBlue has confirmed. Now thinking we should have a rep from a smaller company or app development firm for a spot on the panel since Zappos & Woot look very likely (& me Dell). Thanks & keep those suggestions coming!

This sounds great. I think twitter of course has had there slow moments, but I really feel that this is really just the beginning for them and they should do nothing but continue to succeed. It will be great to hear how the panel has used twitter to benefit their company, and what they plan on doing in the future by using twitter. I feel if done right, twitter can be an effective way to help get your message out to the people. Looking forward to the discussion. be well, jamie
