1. It doesn’t take much time. I can skim through updates while I’m taking a break from real work.

2. It connects me with people I otherwise wouldn’t have an opportunity to know and like–and whom I certainly wouldn’t take the time to call

3. It allows me to build my personal brand by being who I am, in front of more people

4. I’m using it now, in conjunction with other techniques, to “market” my weight loss campaign–to myself. The more public it is, the more likely I am to follow through.

A brillaint blogger like you is the perfect user.
Actually, we all are, (minus the spammers).

In one sentence, we really can convey relevant notes ♪
that are worthwhile!

I will stop by with tips.
Enjoy.

Tip#1 If you’re well known, and have security concerns,
don’t Tweet:
“Daughter Michelle is babysitting for me while I run to the Mall…her first time” <- From a public figure!!
Here’s another:
“Damn! I forgot my Rolex at thome and we’re already here, oh well” <-from a traceable figure!

You get the point.

Twitter is excellent. Is your use of it?

I taught If we want to drive traffic from Social Media ike Myspace,Friendster, or any kind of, we need to behave a really unique design to attract the attentions..

Twitter is also making it easier to be connected. The netvibes module allows you to twit from your netvibes page. Twitter is for staying in touch and keeping up with friends no matter where you are or what you’re doing. For some friends you might want instant mobile updates—for others, you can just check the web. Twitter is a site that asks one simple question – “What are you doing right now?” It’s most often used by college-age people to keep up with one another.

Twitter doesn’t bring innovation to the table so much as new interaction with innovation. What’s causing Twitter’s astronomical growth must have something to do with the uses people are coming up with for it. Twitter is also a great forum for research, if you have the right kind of friends. More and more people are using it for quick polls, and to recruit, source topics for stories, and hunt for PR stories.

Twitter is designed to work on a mobile phone as well as a computer. All Twitter messages are limited to 140 characters, so each message can be sent as a single SMS alert. Twitter also makes a great career tool: ‘Follow’ the leaders in your profession, or subscribe to a free headline service (Reuters, The New York Times and other sites offer breaking-news updates via Twitter.). Twitter is either a pub or a cafe – depending on your preference and/or the time of day.

Twitter is a great communication companion and allows you to communicate FAST. Twitterverse is the latest mashup of the increasingly popular Twitter. It takes information from “tweets” coming from a certain period of time, and then analyzes them to see which words are being typed the most.

What is twitter you ask? Well, some refer to it as “micro-blogging”. What is twitter to you? To me it’s just a fun little app that lets me keep up with some of my friends.

Well, just for ha ha’s, I will keep track of this ” Twitter Ebay Sale ” just to see the actual winning bid….it’ll also be interesting to know if this person actually receives his cash after the auction ends from the winning bidder…and as far as having a twitter blog, I think I’ll pass, as my life is already way to busy and I have to make the most of my valuable blogging time on my site and the things devoted to grow my audience.

I for once thought that Twitter is useless in term of self-promoting, and wondered why people twitting and put a Twitter widget in their blogs.

Now, I reconsider Twitter – thanks to this blog post. I already envision what you explain about Twitter – and consider starting to have an image of myself to be put in thousands of directories and blogging platform

Cheers!

It seems that the marketing of Twitter accounts has begun on eBay:

(I shortened the link due to eBay’s size of the link)

Last time I looked, this Twitter account was up to $1,500 U.S.!

Wow!

Thanks for the post!

Great post. I’ve wondered what the true benefits of twitter could be for bloggers, aside from just keeping up with friends and what they’re doing every second of the day.

I have sort of an off the track question. I looked at your series on building niche sites. I want to know where a good place is to buy an old domain–I have heard that the older a domain is, the quicker it will get ranked. Do you suggest a service?

Even people, like myself, that didn’t really care for Twitter a few months ago are getting excited and active.

Twitter rocks

I think to benefit from Twitter the most, you NEED to get in quick and start using it. As with most social networks, the best time to get in, is when these networks are starting up – people let down their defenses and “follow” people because they’re just glad to have a friend. Wait a few months when this joint is old-hat and the laggards will be scratching for followers.

I’ve been procrastinating about posting about Twitter on my blog, but now I think it’s time I hurried up and just did it.

Fantastic post by the way, Yaro…

I did a short post about Twitter, titled “Oh, Twitter” – with my ‘take’ on the tool – http://www.MoneyPowerWisdom.com/oh-twitter/

I might be wrong, but I remember following your tweet-stream early on when I joined Twitter – but then UNfollowed because there was nothing happening on your end.

Have re-joined, looking to share some thoughts on Twitter!

All success

Thanks for the link also. I’ve really seen all the big names take Twitter on board recently so something has definitely changed to make people change their minds. I am a huge fan of Twitter as you probably know and I sing its praises all the time

Welcome aboard – see you in the Twittersphere!

Read the first part of my Twitter guide (Yaro linked it above) – or even just the first paragraph, and see if that doesn’t convince you that Twitter is a serious tool in the modern era.

Interesting comments so far…

Here’s my 2c’s worth…

I’m a bit like you…I’ve had a twitter account now for about a year, but have only really been using it in the last two weeks. I didn’t really get serious about it until I had an interview with my buddy Juho, from technology land, Finland.

During the interview, he made it very clear to me that, if you’re not on twitter already, simply put, you’re missing out.

You’re missing out on making new friends.

You’re missing out on building a massive network at the speed of light.

You’re missing out on getting your presence out there and getting known in your target market.

And you’re missing out on getting lots of new business as a result.

I basically use it to have fun with and to meet new people. It is just soooo easy to connect with people. And you guessed it, you can still connect with fairly high profile people, especially in the Internet Marketing world. Before twitter, these people were untouchable.

As to the issue whether it’s actually making us less social as a human race, I’m sorry, I cant agree. I think one of the main reasons why things like twitter, facebook and myspace are exploding like they are, is because of our (ie humans) incredible need to feel connected. We seem to want to know that we are also part of the bigger picture and that other people are taking notice of us. So far, twitter does this the best in my view.

But I suppose there is a balance to be kept as well. One might go nuts if one only spends time on twitter. But combining good regular social contact with twitter, can only be a good thing in my view.

It’s certainly opened huge doors for both me and Juho, my buddy from Finland, as well as everyone else I know on twitter.

Talk soon!

I will definitely check out twitter though as it sounds, at least to this point in time, a little more focused and simplistic. Given my target market for online products are expecting or young mothers I believe they would love that kind of communication.

Thanks for the tip. Great blog posts.

Messaging, in the form of Twitter or SMS, can be a better way of getting a thought across. If I want to ask someone in the early afternoon if she wants to have dinner tonight, I’d rather ask by text than couch the question in 10 minutes of smalltalk. Some messages honestly aren’t worthy of a long phone call, the same way that some handwritten messages for better expressed on postcards than complete letters.

With or without ostentatious names like microblogging, Twitter’s just one socializing option that may or may not fit your lifestyle.

Thank Yaro! You rock! Kim

You’ll make Twitter work for you because that’s who you are! I can’t say that much for me thus far. I’ve been off it the past week as I’ve been focused on other things. I’ll jump back in this week and see if it makes sense.

Everything is not for everyone of course. I hate small talk! So, unless I figure out how to use to well, I’ll probably jump off the twit-mobile soon enough.

For now, see you there! I hope your life/biz are going great.

Kim, Colorado
