Informative, well organized post. Funny you should write of Dentist clients. I have not yet sought dentists on Twitter, though 90 percent of our work is dental office design. Thank you for reminding me of that possibility. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the 10 tips! Twitter’s great for getting perspectives on your industry / career outside of your usual circle of colleagues. I’ve noticed it’s particularly difficult for architects to talk about career options and get more points of view than are available in their own firm, and other firms in their immediate area.

Hope you’ll post more about @threefourteen on twitter. You can find me at: http://twitter.com/ArchitectsPro

Our organization (Society of American Military Engineers) just started using Twitter and is finding it a great communication tool for reaching out to the A/E/C community. Great blog post Jason! Very informative.

The AIA Federal Relations team is on Twitter, tweeting about architecture, politics, and Washington. Check it out: http://www.twitter.com/aialobbyist.

Very good summary, Jack. It brings me back to the 1990s in this industry, when the discussion was whether there was value in having a web site. I’ve found myself in the position lately of trying to explain Twitter to AEC execs (mainly small and mid-sized firms). Most are mildly intrigued, but still a distance away from being ready to jump in. I always end these conversations by telling them that a presence on Twitter — or something like it — will soon be as expected as having a web site.

That would be awesome if the AIA decided to pick it up, but due to the economy I am no longer an AIA member as of April 1st. If they still wanted to pick it up though??? That would be great! As for the website- I love your stuff, so you get a link on my blog. Its that easy! I realize it looks like yours is the only one I follow but I have others I need to get out there, its just taking a bit more time than expected to update all my links from my previous blog. Its such a monotonous task.

Jason,
This is a terrific article. My clients are architectural firms (even some you name!), and they are only gradually coming to Twitter. Your “marketing positioning strategy” (section 1) provides excellent advice on point-of-view, which is the fundamental way to create distinctiveness in social networking.
And I agree with Susan — you should try to get it on the AIA National website.
