You are so smart!
Putting Twitter into Perspective...You are so smart!
ps: Welcome to visit my blog:http://www.oil-painting-online.com --- Stupendous Art World with Excellent Chinese Oil Paintings…thanks for viewing and sorry for any troubles if occurred to you.
As in anything, you must be
As in anything, you must be careful to weed out garbage. Whenever I get an email that someone is following me, I go to their profile and see what they're about. If they're selling marketing tools, for example, i don't follow them because I'm not on Twitter for that, and also because this is not high school. Yes, I have over 1000, probably closer to 2000 followers right now. I do not follow all people back for reasons noted above. I check my twitter grade but I don't do the "5000 followers over night" crap. Twitter is still about networking, and content and it's our right and choice to decide who we want to follow.
I'm also one who does NOT believe everything I read and people should really adopt that mentality.
Oh and another thing. With all of the hacking and stuff going on - I won't even click on links unless I know what it is. If I see a topic trending, I'll try to see what it's about then Google it. You just never know.
Tweeting at the speed of sound
It's amazing how fast Twitter spreads news. Think about it: If you witnessed a newsworthy event, you could tweet about it via iPhone or blackberry immediately--before it even reaches news stations. My only concern is, what if rumors spread like wildfire? Twitter information is monitored the way broadcasted news is.
Underestimated Power of Twiitter
There is no doubt in my mind that the tremendous capabilities of Twitter still needs to be discovered and is largely under utilized. The power lies in the 140 character restriction, which almost forces you to get your message across in the most efficient manner, and not losing or misleading your audience. Go Twitter Go!!!
Here Ye, Hear Ye ---
Like a drivers license to drive toward one's heart intent, just what if a test prior everyones continual use of Twitter; about how actually to rightly go there, get around to succeed and even make use thereafter, which becomes all about reasoning being there at all, truly happens? Gee!
Truly a variety of integration options be what's needed most and sectioned into/among groups, what do say about that?
I actually think social networks could concentrate on one main subject per web site instead of mass confusion in most every one that's out there. I relish the idea so, much that as owner for the actual founder for many Celtic web sites, we agree to keep them all Celtic posts throughout. I say this because, Twitter may have to example such, less of confusion benevolently someday and any reap considered for us hanging in there be offered rightly back via some kindly extra pool earnings. Speaking of benefits/advantages since it is all whom sew the ropes. I'm speaking of everyone among us, as subscribers potentially most apt to gain for that needed payback.
Yes, payback from the hardship of experiencing but, sticking with it anyway, lesser of complaints meanwhile. Hey, am I dreaming big well, why not? This IS still a big talk issue.
I enjoyed reading through all posts and I thank you each for this. The article creation was certainly needed. Time is always of essence.
Much Appreciation!

twitter
Although I dont not get much business from specials I post on twitter I did see a surge in placement on Yahoo. I'm not sure if google didnt recognize it as much or if my competitors are doing the same thing thus giving them the same "boost".

Twitter for Business
I find the twitter is mainly used for b2b communication, as in the wedding industry, not many brides and groom communicate on twitter, but will us the likes of Facebook.
Twitter ignored?
It's true. Twitter simply can't be ignored.
Twitter, has surprised
Twitter, has surprised everyone with its reach and capabilities but for business it is still, I feel a million miles away, instant news feed great, but theres loads of them, a load of dross, yep plenty of that...but real simple b2b , b2c usage a million miles away, however it wont take long for another to realise where twitter has gone wrong and grab the business prize...not too long for those that have seen the writing on the wall.
Twitter
Twitter has its uses but it's nothing new. We all had shoutboxes on our sites years ago, Twitter is almost just a centralised version.
Sadly Twitter is just becoming a cloud of noise as it encourages the fire and forget mentality.
future
Real time search is the path that all major search engines will go down and twitter has really been a leader in this respect.
I'm so sick of hearing about
I'm so sick of hearing about Twitter. It's a chatroom people.
Every time I see another article about Twitter I want to punch the writer in the face.
Twitter perspective
You know, twitter is great, however its better not to use for sell or promote any thing. People do not buy or pay attention to you unless they know you, like you and trust you. Twitter should be use to further enhance and possibly create new relationships based on trust.
If such trustworthy relationship happens to have a biz you can use, twitter is a great tool to show what you have. I try not to twitt junk, sell or promote any thing, thankfuly my twitter's page name sells itself along with my website. People tend to gravitates to our site because of its name.
So when I twitt,,,not promote I try to twitt about public interest or services, events and other things that promote off line social media interaction. Promote evnte where actual twitteres can get to meet eachother, talk and perhaps create biz realtionships if possible.
Twittering 2009
I have been active on twitter for just over a month and I believe it has increased my profile greatly. Yes there are spammers, but you can quickly unfollow them and follow only those that you are truly interested in.
I write a blog for recent retirees and those wishing to be retired, and I see no point in sending out tweets that do not describe exactly what my latest entry is about. I tend to follow those who use Twitter the same way.
I believe Twitter has a great future for several reasons. It has the same potential as Google did when it started up. I wonder if there will be an IPO?
Unfollowing people
I've unfollowed people not necessarily due to spam but pages and pages of pure ads I wasn't the least bit interested in. Of course one peson's junk is another person's break through

Interesting
Thank you for an interesting article, again.
I've been thinking about Twitter for a while now, even went so far as to sign up a few months ago then forgot all about it.
Guess I'll just need to dig it back up again and have a go.
twitter
twitter is really good, if used properly, only follow people in realted insustries/sectors and only people who are in related services to follow you. Dont use twitter as purley an adblaster, remember its a two way conversation.
Tweet this!
I resisted the urge to join twitter until a few days ago. I always do that, lol, I'm a wait and see type of person. But finally I realized what a great way to get more hits, more prospects and more members for my website. There IS a lot of spam out there, but I try to provide only content that will interest the target audience I'm trying to reach. In just the few days since I joined the hits to my website has increased by 40%. I should have started Tweeting AGES ago!
Interesting article
Twitter is fabulous. I just started it and it is great. It so hard to control who is on it. I have to unfollow some weird people.
Spammers
I agree with other posters about spammers, it is getting pathetic now. To me it totally ruins the whole concept of twitter. Registered on Twellow yesturday which seems to be a lot more profesional and organized.
blah
I don't understand why there's so much fuss over Twitter. Just seems like a fad to me. I think it's pretty pointless. It's just another medium for spammers. Why not just use a blog? You can write more than a few sentences...... I see no need to "follow" anyone on Twitter. Most businesses, celebrities, news sites, etc. have regular web sites with RSS feeds. Just about everyone has a blog-RSS feeds again..........
re twitter vs blog
if you are interested in getting people visit your blog then twitter is a tool that can get you visitors - you can send your RSS to it so friends can go directly to your blogs while chatting on twitter.
Turning away twitter is like turning away a nice cold glass of lemonade on a warm day, purely because water has always been good enough to quench your thirst, why try anything else ?
Twitter
Social media is all about relating with your customers and potential customers. Yes we have a website and we have a blog but we would be missing large groups of people that like to relate via Facebook and Twitter is we weren't there too. We even have a My Space page. And we have a weekly enews letter for folks who have signed up. We cross post all of the info on those sites. It's all about reaching people and giving our customers a way to relate to us in an environment they prefer.
Twitter for business..
is fine, but when every post is some new offer and adds nothing to the social concept of the media, then it is a pain and you get unfollowed, at least by me.
Google PR
Not to mention the fact that we were able to achieve a Google PR6 in less than 4 months for our main Twitter account! I guess content remains king and thousands of people from around the world will link to your Twitter profile page if you provide value.
Followers
Thanks for pointing out the obvious (for anyone with a brain) regarding followers.
I first began twittering
I first began twittering 2years ago however now I find it now almost unusable due to spam.
The spammers will only leave it alone once it either dies or Google takes over it - which as shown with myspace is one in the same.
Twitter
Twitter has had a very positive impact on the business, building brand awareness by offering free educational resources in Unix, Solaris, Perl and Java. Rgds Vince
It's interesting!
I want more details about this idea, can you tell me more?
spam on twitter
like every good thing, twitter too has got its share of spammers...as Mike pointed out, entirely due to the human nature called greed! My twitter account is folowed by a few close friends only still, on an average I get about 10 new followers. The funny part is they have NOTHING to do with my business!! 80% are work from home and earn more than even Ambani is making and the rest 10% comprises of a few newbies, eager to get followers-hence following type of users! 10%- even I dont know why they follow me!
I believe if we users can be a little more prudent is following people, spammers will be less inclined to follow us. After all, if you engage in a coversation with a cold tele-caller-even if you buy nothing-he will DEFINITELY call you again. Because you atleast listen...better than most of his clientele!
