Sat, 15 Aug 2009 22:26:50 +0000 http://cheaptweet.com/blog/?p=87975004#comment-202 Interesting read. Thanks. Do you have any suggestions or tips on how to run the contest? Things like tracking followers or retweets or hashes to determine winners? Are their features of Twitter that you can use for this, are there other 3rd party services that can track those or is it more of a manual process? Thanks again! Interesting read. Thanks.
