Recently, I was asked by Jackie Chapman (jchapman[at]allaccess[dot]com), the editor over at allaccess.com, to participate in their “10 Questions with” series. All Access is a very useful and informative broadcast and music industry, members-only website.

For several weeks now, I’ve been using the third-party Twitter client Seesmic Desktop to manage my Twitter engagement. I actually migrated from TweetDeck, a platform I never thought I’d leave.
