Best of the best

Dallas Decoder’s next #DallasChat on Twitter will be Thursday, November 12, from 4 to 5 p.m. Eastern time.

Our theme: “The Best of #DallasChat II.” Once again, I’ll ask some favorite questions from previous discussions.

Are you new to #DallasChat? Here’s how it works: During each hour-long discussion, I tweet 10 questions from my Twitter handle, @DallasDecoder. Fans respond to the questions and comment on each other’s answers, making each chat a fun, freewheeling group conversation.

Here’s a sample exchange:

Q1. What if J.R. hadn’t gone into the oil business? What other career would have suited him? #DallasChat

A1. J.R. was a born politician. Given his charm and charisma, he could have gone all the way to the White House! #DallasChat

Here are three more tips and tricks:

• Each #DallasChat question is numbered (Q1, Q2, etc.), so your responses should include the corresponding number (A1, A2, etc.).

• Include the hashtag #DallasChat in your tweets.

• During the discussion, enter #DallasChat in Twitter’s search field. This will help you watch the search results so you can follow the conversation. Click “All” to see all the related tweets.

This is another #DallasChat you won’t want to miss. See you Thursday!
