What I am suggesting is that each tweep interested in participating in <strong>#Link4Lunch <\/strong>select what they think is the <strong>BEST<\/strong> and <strong>MOST INTERESTING<\/strong> link they have come across in the last 24 hours and post it between the hours of <strong>12:00 noon and 1:00 pm<\/strong> using the hashtag <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>I would suggest that each person only select and tweet one link each day and ensure that it is of <strong>GREAT<\/strong> quality to be their <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> tweet. And honestly if you don&#8217;t have something you think is a great post, article, pic, comic, news story or something else then <strong>DON&#8217;T<\/strong> tweet a <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> that day. <\/p>\n<p>So here was <a href='http:\/\/twitter.com\/TheSocialCMO\/status\/24677641508' >the very first <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> tweet<\/a> I made today at 12:20pm and I plan to do the same everyday with the <strong>BEST<\/strong> link I find to share with all of you in the Twittersphere who follow <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/TheSocialCMO\">@TheSocialCMO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To make it easy to follow everyone&#8217;s <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> contribution each day I have already established a page on WhatTheHashtag <a href=\"http:\/\/wthashtag.com\/link4lunch\"><strong>http:\/\/wthashtag.com\/link4lunch <\/strong><\/a> so that you can easily watch the <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> stream without getting any mustard on you!<\/p>\n<p>So I hope you all will give <strong>#Link4Lunch<\/strong> a go tomorrow between 12:00 noon &#038; 1:00pm and we&#8217;ll all see where this one goes!<\/p>\n<p>Cheers<\/p>\n<p>Jeff Ashcroft<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/TheSocialCMO\">@TheSocialCMO<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Always thinking about methods of encouraging and improving the productive sharing of quality information on Twitter, this week I have come up with the #Link4Lunch Hashtag.
