What is Twitter?

March 8, 2008 · 1 comment

Probably one of the most successful social media tools to catch fire in 2007 was Twitter. Twitter has been used as a micro-blogging tool that many use instead of a blog post or email. Twitter in a nutshell is to answer the question, “What am I doing?” in 140 characters or less.

If you haven’t added Twitter to your social media toolbox you need to try it. In the meantime, thanks to the awesome team at CommonCraft check out this video Twitter in Plain English.

    David, this is a very nice video explaining how Twitter works and how valuable a tool it is for bloggers in any niche.
    We hear so often the importance of building relationships with other bloggers on a more personal level, and Twitter provides an excellent and easy way to accomplish that.
    Since being on Twitter, I’ve been able to connect with other bloggers in and out of my personal niche, and can’t recommend Twitter enough.
    Of course it’s also important to understand proper Twitter etiquette. One thing that I have the most fun with is providing tiny links to discovered posts from other bloggers that I think my followers will enjoy reading, rather than simply promoting my own posts.
