I’ll tell you about Twitter.

Everyone who knows me knows I am on Twitter. I tweet. I twote, I twooted. I’ve been asked MANY times by my peers “How does it work?”

Others just seem to consider it stupid, saying “its just a bunch of Facebook status updates.” In a way it is, so let me first say that Twitter is not for everyone.

I would imagine that if all you would be interested in twittering about is when youre showering or watching Cops, then yeah, you’d be boring to follow. Twitter is so much more than little blurbs and blips. Its a place to have conversations. Because your statements and questions are limited to 140 characters, Twitter forces people to take their time and communicate efficiently.  There is no talking over one another, no verbose “likes” and “you knows?” and each person you meet has a chance to really create something special– a conversation. Twitter is also so useful for personal branding.

Twitter is raidly changing the social media landscape and therfore, it will inevitably affect our industries. dont hesitate t o give it a try. After all, its free!

Here is an excellent article about Twitter. If youre even remotely interested in Twitter, this article explains its benefits and uses far better than I could. Happy reading!
