#BarkFriday Twitter Party: RTing During the Party Posted: 15 Nov 2011 09:01 PM PST by Carrie Boyko, CEB A couple of weeks ago I added to my archive of Twitter Party tips with a post on keeping up during a Twitter party. Things move very fast at a Twitter party and sometimes it is tough to know what you're supposed to be doing. My main point in that post was to remind you that watching your host (or the guest expert if you're following that conversation) will help you keep up with whatever you need to be doing, if anything. My bad! Although that is great advice, I left out one very important tip, so today you get just one little piece of kibble that will help make your Twitter party experience more enjoyable. You and all your fellow party guests may want to RT important statements made by the host or anyone whose input affects the next step in the party, such as a sponsor. For instance, if I suggest that a prize drawing is coming up and then ask a question, you may want to help everyone see that tweet by RTing it. If they do the same, it will help you too. Those of you who were at #SafeHowlOween probably noticed at least one or two of these RTs. We had some experienced Twitter party guests who were doing their good deed, helping to get the hosts' tweets out to everyone. The countdown to #BarkFriday has begun today with my intro to our guest expert. In upcoming posts you'll be meeting some of our sponsors here. Others will be profiled at Dogtipper, so keep your eyes on both blogs for news and info. Happy tails!

Dog-Themed Handbags: A Giveaway Posted: 15 Nov 2011 07:14 PM PST by Carrie Boyko, CEB This is the last time you'll see these sling handbags, so think about it carefully. Three winners will each get one handbag. These adorable bags made in the markets of Thailand are fully-lined and  hand-made with zipper closures. They can be worn as a long sling or tied up shorter as a shoulder bag if preferred. You'll have 2 weeks to enter while I'm taking some time off. That really only means I'm not posting my full schedule. I'll still be here monitoring things, but will also be spending time with family and celebrating Thanksgiving and other recent family excitement. It's good for inspiration to take time off. Hopefully I'll return with lots of new ideas and fun plans for the upcoming Super Dog Sunday.   The winners will all be notified on December 2nd or 3rd and will receive color preference in the order of reply. It's the only way I can do it fairly so watch the blog and your email on those days for notices. I'll have bunches of prizes to announce and I have no plan for the order of announcement. I'll be flying by the seat of my pants! If you don't see the Rafflecopter entry form here, simply click on the post title and it will reappear just beneath this line:
