We strive to give children a better life than they would have had otherwise.What's your favorite Twitter app?
CoTweet helps keep us organized, but we use TweetDeck as a way to reign in the chaos (using groups) and monitor search terms.Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?
Yes, spammers and those darn owls from Harry Potter (Hedwig, Pidwidgeon and Hermes) boooring.How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
I ask people for feedback on issues I'm thinking about -- for instance, I asked people for book title ideas, and got a flood of responses. I've found sources, developers, and countless ideas. At the site I co-founded (food52) we do an annual Tournament of Cookbooks, and the idea for this came out of a Twitter exchange I had with an acquaintance @cettedrucks. We then teamed up to host the event.
How do you make your tweets unique?
Real people tweet and we try to provide links to supporting information and media. No one else on Earth has our imagery and content.What inspires you to tweet?
The ability to help people one on one with questions that they have about their money. It also makes them feel valid and I like that.140 characters of advice for a new user?

What music are you listening to most often these days?
Right now, to be honest, I am listening to Lady Gaga! On Spotify! Can you believe that? I am lucky enough to have access to Spotify and what do I spend it listening to? I promise that I listen to a whole lot more Lucinda Williams, though.
