I have always been a bit skeptical when it comes to Twitter. Several times I have seriously thought about signing up for my own account and letting the world experience my very own tweets. Every time I have found myself on the actual website thoughts come to mind about how Twitter looks confusing and complicated, as well as the idea that I already have a Facebook and why do I need another social media website to influence my life.
I was very impressed with the personal example Prof. Hadley shared on his experience to successfully publicize an entire event on Twitter. Being able to reach such a large audience through connections on Twitter is a brilliant idea to create buzz about your product or service, or in Prof. Hadley’s case, his unique CoWork Utah, Orem Tweetup.
So the other day, I caved in and decided to finally created my very own Twitter account and have SLOWLY been figuring out how it all works. I would definitely consider myself a noob to the tweeting world but would love any insights and pointers. Feel free to follow me on Twitter @robmwitt. I need to work on expanding who I follow....
I am already pleased with what I have observed in my short time on Twitter. Just like Facebook you are able to take advantage of special sales, coupons, and offers if you are connected with specific companies. I like the idea of people simply sharing what is on their mind, and being able to search words and see what people are saying; which is extremely helpful for companies to see what is being said about their brand.
