Get Tweeked
Even before the most recent hype about Twitter, the microblogging network was already growing rapidly in popularity, as reported by Mashable in January.
What I love about Twitter requires a new website entirely, but I shall paraphrase quite simply here; It is my social life. After the dissolving of my maiden serious relationship, I felt I could not return to the social circle I had once shared with this person so easily, and so I turned to my online networks. I have a strong passion for event management, and so found the Brisbane Twitter community open to many new ideas from creative souls. And events we have!
For the many of my “in-real-life” friends who have not made the move into the confined, simplicity of the intelligent network (and are still fapping around with Facebook News Feeds), I am running a series of blog entries on how to kick arse on Twitter. That is, on:
- getting started,
- basic Twitter etiquette,
- being useful to other “tweeps,” and
- finding the information you want from the Twittersphere.
You’re all certainly doomed to be tweeked!
Edit, 12th May: I came across this post yesterday on Ten Twitter Mythconceptions and just had to share. Such a good one.
