This past week: For this week, my round-up is based on a different approach, which I've used in the past; the top 9 tweets according to my Hootsuite analytics. These are ranked according to the number of click throughs during the past week. What it is interesting is that not all the tweets in this list were posted last week, some were posted a few weeks ago. Nevertheless, this list still covers all sorts of topics that a Small Business trying to succeed online will find interesting.
