A few more things you may see people tweeting…RT = ReTweet#FF The # is a Hashtag
The FF = Follow Friday so if you see a #FF @getterdonegurus they are saying Hey follow this tweep!

Angela is an absolute delight to work with & I have never been happier!

Professional, easy going & tireless when it comes to making the client happy, she not only creates the effect I am looking for every time, she also does it with utmost efficiency and I always know I can rely on her.

In addition, her positive attitude has shown me that creating websites can, actually, be fun!!!!"

Angela was very proactive and helped with several different sites that I own.

Her suggestions, and consulting around the clock is what helped me to "think outside the box" and develop a new concept while considering immediate and future changes. Logo design, plugins, upgrades, and whatever else I needed she was there!

She is definitely on our team for future projects!
