Who's on Facebook and Twitter?

I was going to list all the facebook and twitter accounts for our dealers but I wanted to quickly ask for some Twitter advice, 2 Kia stores use the same Twitter account and our 3 used stores use the same twitter account, is this OK? There would be better mileage out of each having their own account but for sake of (laziness?) convenience I've amalgamated them to 1 account each...

We use the same account for our entire company - not just multiple franchises. We want people to identify with Checkered Flag....our brand.

.....just a thought.
 
Brent,

You know I love your enthusiasm! I was negative on FB ONLY due the time required to do the job right.

It's lil' events like this that illustrate my point:
...Getting interaction is a tough part of it. I have our receptionist set up as an "admin" so she can go in and post stuff....

Please keep us posted on your FB adventures...
