That’s one of the reasons why my auto-posts from wordpress don’t contain hashtags; I don’t think it’s fair.
I haven’t used the #MyWANA tag very much because I haven’t really had the time to use it as I should. I hope, as time goes on for me that i’ll be able to use it again and that the tag returns to the community you are trying so hard to create.

But you are right, it could be such an amazing place if not for them. I am looking forward to interacting more with #MyWANA on Twitter!! Yay!!

Plus I’m so super excited about posting some photos to the wana commons on Flickr!

You are one fantastic lady, Kristen!

Stand your ground! I tend to avoid Twitter because it just seems like people promoting themselves, which…sorry I don’t have time to read every blog post advertised on my feed. I don’t go to Twitter to click over to something else. Otherwise, why Twitter at all… I’m glad you are reclaiming your hashtag and you’ve inspired me to give Twitter a second chance. Hope ot see you there.
