1. – What is #IDzinechat? It’s a forum, on Twitter, where consumers can ask question about their interior design projects/needs, and a team of industry experts will share the answers. No gimmicks, no solicitations, no charge! We’ll answer in the 140 characters or less – the length of a Twitter post.
2. - What’s the purpose for arranging this tweeting of tips? We, the interior design experts, aren’t just going to begin randomly spouting out ideas in effort to promote our businesses or services. We are really interested in engaging with the you, the consumer, by finding out what you want to know. How about that? Free design advice, based on your needs. Can you believe it? We really want to hear your questions so we can provide better and more pertinent information. As mentioned, earlier, we’ll have interior design experts who are well-versed in everything from: eco friendly-design, color science, kitchen & bath design, remodeling, new home construction, universal design, furniture & product design, aging-in-place, organization, space planning, home accents, permanent finishes, to window treatment experts, and the list goes on. What a unique opportunity to share this experience with the design trade and your friends!

3. – How to follow the tweets. While pulling this off might seem complicated, it’s actually quite simple. In Twitter, there is a little tool we refer to as a hashtag. A hashtag means there is a #sign in front of a phrase or word which makes it easier for readers to track conversations, topics, communities, and other events. In order for consumers and designers to be able to follow our timeline, we created the hashtag, #IDzinechat. Some helpful places to follow the conversations would be either on TweetChat: http://tweetchat.com/room/idzinechat or Twubs: http://twubs.com/idzinechat Remember, in each tweet, whether it’s a question or a response, please be sure to use the hashtag so everyone can follow the conversations.
4. – How will this be hosted/moderated and announced? For each chat, there will be a group of design experts, who will have a predetermined regular date and time for the chat. We’ll take turns being the host/moderator for the event. If an expert agrees to host/moderate the chat, they will also be responsible for promoting the date and time. Other experts will help to retweet – aka – repeat their announcements so more followers will be made aware of the information. A specific topic can be set or it can be a totally open forum. The consumers will ultimately decide on topics, via their questions. The designated #Idzinechat host will promote the day and time, prior to the event, using the hashtag in twitter posts. The design chat date and time will continue to be announced, so everyone, both designers and consumers, can plan to be on Twitter, at the same time. About thirty minutes before the magic hour, the chat host will begin announcing for folks to prepare to join in. (A little tip for all – use #IDzinechat in each of your tweets. Everyone can follow the questions and answers, more readily. We may miss you if you don’t use this.)
I’m @WandaSHorton on Twitter. Interior Designers – come join in! Consumers – come share with us!
Watch for an announcement on Sunday, June 13, 2010 for the schedule and more info.
Tweetfully yours! Wanda - #IDzinechat first host – Creator of #IDzinechat: Leslie Carothers - @tkpleslie on Twitter

Let me share this on your lovely blog, A neighbor of mine developed dementia & diabetes, then her husband died, no children or family nearby. I am thankful our closest neighbor, an African American woman, introduced Dr Itua Herbal Medicine, A traditional herbal doctor in which we purchased a herbal product for her through his Dr Itua online herbs store. A former social worker stepped in and led the way to place the widow in a care facility. We visit nearly every week until she finishes drinking Dr Itua herbal medicines, if possible. The two of us take simple games, puzzles, and matching cards to do with her, staying about 2 hours. Jenga, Trouble, puzzles 100pcs or less, 20 cards to match (total-not 40!). The fishing game where the fish open and shut their mouths as they go around is lots of fun! We sit and chat with her until she gets well again, then we pull out a game and the three of us laugh together as we play. We take a variety of things to do so that we won't get bored. She finished Dr Itua herbal medicines and she's fine now and doing better with the help of Dr Itua herbal medicines, Dr Itua cures different illnesses with his herbal medicines. Anyone having a sick person should reach Dr Itua email drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Dr Itua Cure Alzheimer's,Cancer,Parkinson,Hiv,Herpes,Hpv,Kidney disease,Diabetes,Hepatitis, We hug and hold hands a lot. Having two of us go together really helps. But I can go alone, my neighbor cannot, as she saw so much of this during her years as a social worker. I hope this specific list helps others in this situation.
Thanks.
