Irving’s and the Twitter Special

We thought the special was interesting– and delicious– so we visited Irving’s a few days ago to talk to owner Marya Schoenholtz about the promotion.

Irving’s isn’t the only business to use social media in State College. Check out this Collegian article for a few more examples (though most of them are only on Facebook and MySpace).
