Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?
Yes, we have! People who have said something racist, discriminative or just insulting to other people.
Why should we vote for you?

Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?
Accounts from public librarys around the world, like @BritishLibrary and @BNE_biblioteca (Spain). They get closer librarys to people.
Who is the funniest person on Twitter that you follow?
Our friends from Chile's National Museum of Natural History (@MNHN_cl) make science fun. They rock.
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
"Twitter is a waste of time". Used well, Twitter is a powerful tool and an infinite source of knowledge and ideas.

How has social media helped bring your family closer together and #keepgoodgoing?
We and @BN_Chile (the closest to a mum to us) are closer now more than never thanks to social media.
Why'd you start tweeting?
We wanted to get in touch with our users and tell the world what we are doing since 2003!
Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?
Thanks to twitter we have increased a lot the number of people who use our web site. The communication with them is faster now too.

It's gonna be the year of digital content revolution (we hope!)

When has tried to be a like Facebook... and should be very different!
