Twitter Link Roundup #133 – Small Business, Social Media, Design, Copywriting, Marketing And More Ross | June 1st, 2012
Every day on the crowdSPRING Twitter account and on my own Twitter account, I post links to posts or videos I enjoyed reading or viewing. These posts and videos are about logo design, web design, startups, entrepreneurship, small business, leadership, social media, marketing, and more! Here are some of the links that I’ve liked and shared this past week!
The video above shows a very creative marriage proposal made when a large group of the couple’s friends participated in a lip-dub. It’s worth your time to watch.
