The Shorty Interview
with Analisa Hightower

What are six things you could never do without?
My Family, My Dogs, Water, Food, Sleep, and Socks
How do you use Twitter in your professional life?
I use it for Lola's Foundation (www.mylola.org) to tweet about health news and food articles
What was the funniest trend you've seen?
What feature should Twitter add?
Nothing. Twitter is great in its simplicity.
Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?
Barry Zito - I can't find him but I've liked him since he pitched on the A's. He's great with community service and I respect what he does.
What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?
Be Kind; Everyone You Meet is Fighting a Hard Battle - Plato
Why should we vote for you?
Because my non-profit is volunteer based. Instead of using donations to pay salaries, we use it to buy school supplies for children.
Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?
What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?
Food Network's @healthyeats when I started Lola's Foundation I took their brown bag challenge & I love their healthy tips they provide!
What inspires you to tweet?
Ever get called out for tweeting too much?
People get called out for that?
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
Why should people follow you?
I tweet healthy life tips and food tips. I love reading food news to know what is going on with recipes and agriculture.
How do you use social media to motivate yourself or others to live a healthier life?
I tweet about healthy recipes, how to make recipes healthier (courtesy of Bon Appetit's junk food makeover)
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
Let’s hope that we learn from history and learn that we cannot judge people by the color of their skin, their sexual orientation or their socio-economic standing. If we learn this, the world will be much kinder and more accepting. So in 10 years, perhaps more people will be happier with the lives they lead. In 10 years, if we haven’t acknowledged global warming and done much to slow it down, Napa will be on its way out and Walla Walla, Washington will be the prime grape growing region.
