I think I have a few thousand followers but I never really took advantage of what twitter can do. But I've read countless posts such as this describing how twitter can really help with our business, preferably online ventures. Marketing a blog or site is as easy as typing in the link and having it sent to all followers. One must only be careful not to use it to spam everyone.

People are curious by nature that's why even celebrities are actively using twitter. The communication it provides is so easy and accessible that anyone can do it.

On number 3, you made mention about something that can be very useful for members. They have the privilege to control and organize the flow of information. One thing I can add is that members might want to re-think their list of followers and those that they follow. The natural act when someone wants to follow us is that we approve it right there and then without actually screening or thinking about it twice. This brings me to number 5 of your post. For a business to get its desired market, one must target specific individuals or groups. Having random followers will not help especially if some are not interested with what you have to offer.

A well thought out article. Do update us with your next posts.

Cheers!

I wasn't really that interested in Twitter, but the part about it basically being "short and sweet" (or as you said short attention span) makes it more likely that I might branch out. I probably should…. but where is the extra time going to come from?

Thanks for a great post on a topic I am struggling with. I have always felt like I was on the cutting edge of technology and have taught computer related courses at the college level.

Learning Twitter has remained beyond my grasp however and I know I need to learn how to stay connected.

This tutorial has helped.
