Use Twitter? Live in Renton? If you said yes to both, it's like we designed this page specially for you (note: we did!).
The Renton Twitter Directory is just what it sounds like—a listing of people and organizations in Renton, using Twitter. If you'd like to have yourself added to the directory or would like to see someone else added, shoot an @ reply to @pnwlocalnews or e-mail pbalcerak@soundpublishing.com. (Note: We'll confirm with people whether they want to be added before adding them.) Don't know about Twitter, but want to get in on the conversation? Watch this short, two-and-a-half minute YouTube video and you'll be up to speed.
The directory is organized by category and then alphabetically.
