Tech San Diego's Director of Comms, Sara Spiva, sits down with Alan Bush, VP of Strategy with Ignite Visibility to talk about Twitter and where to go if the app really does become unusable.

Only 10% of Twitter accounts are responsible for 92% of the tweets on Twitter- What!? 33% of users are using it to connect to brands and companies- providing an authentic way to connect with individuals.
So if the app really does become a brand liability, what's a digital marketer to do? In this episode of TSD Spotlight, we look at the potential fall of the 15th most popular social media site for B2B marketers, where we go from here, and whether Mastodon is a good alternative. If not Mastodon, what existing and functioning platforms should brands be using?
