Updated! Spa Themed Twitter Lists

By popular request! Our readers asked and we are happy to oblige. SpaIndex.com (publisher of SpaCast) previously tweeted its @SpaIndex #FollowFriday theme of Twitter users who are making use of Twitter's "List Feature." We've been asked to share our growing collection of "Twitter's Top Spa List Creators" and Spa Related Twitter Lists.

Browsing another user's spa list is a great way to find new spa enthusists and providers in greater numbers than is permitted by the #FollowFriday trend, and by "following the list" itself you may review all tweets from the listed users in one session.

As the list feature on Twitter continues to gain popularity, and we receive your tips via Twitter, we'll enhance this list -- just let us know if you or your peers have created a spa related "Twitter List" by following and tweeting us @spaindex. *

TWITTER USERS WITH SPA-RELATED LISTS:

Newest Additions!

*Inclusion in SpaCast's Twitter Spa Lists is subject to approval.

Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa names new Twitter Team

The Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa has elected six associates to act as team members to actively tweet and interact with the hotel’s fans and followers on the property’s Twitter page (@Renhollywood) and Facebook page.“We decided it would be best to have several voices speak and listen to our fans on behalf of the property,” says Dan Shaughnessy, director of sales and marketing at the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa.

“And these aren’t marketing folks; they’re people who our guests interact with and see every day. While everyone will use our @Renhollywood name, each member of The Twitter Team will speak from their own personal point of view, based on their position at the property.”

The Twitter Team consists of Shaughnessy, who will discuss the property’s special events and promotional offerings, including the successful weekly music event, Indie Thursdays (hashtag #indiethursdays), and all press inquiries; Steve Ferraro, Director of Food & Beverage, who will keep fans up to date on anything and everything food-related including special recipes, cocktails at Twist Restaurant, and foodie events; Debbie Ayala, Director of Sales, who will share news about unique groups and conventions at the property; twins Debra and Diana Mategrano, who will offer their tips on things to do and places to see in Hollywood from the concierge perspective; and Peggy Sun, Executive Secretary, who will be answering general questions about the property. The team will also be actively engaging with fans on the hotel’s Facebook page by posting photos, videos, events and other links.
