Small Business Tips

I am just curious if anybody has tried using Twitter and if so, did you make any contacts from it?

I read the Twitter guide on Caroline Middlebrook's blog and started about a week ago. I only have one follower - so thus far it's not going very good.

If you are twittering and you'd like to follow me, here's my profile:

Post your profile here and I'll follow you - lets see what we can do together!

  1. So I got a few new followers by choosing to follow them. Interestingly enough, they actually posted messages to me too.

    Anybody else interested in twittering?

    Come on...
  2. yeah, love to twitter. its so much better than having bloglines or "whatever favorite rss feeder of the minute" open all the time. It sits in the back just like my email and IM, giving me an up to the momment on the blogosphere. To bad that most of twitter is just Japan and the EU. I feel bad that the states are falling so behind. But anyways, my twitter feed is twitter.com/denzuko
  3. Great, thanks for sharing!

    I love it too, because you get everybody's blog links and you can click through if you are interested. Just started following you!

    1. Hi newward,

      I am now following you
  4. I'm not currently Twittering, but I've been monitoring it for some time now. I think it makes sense for some businesses more than others. I'm trying to determine whether it will be worth my efforts.
    1. Thanks for weighing in drdental!

      What a wise choice to monitor it for a while before deciding whether or not to join. I've definitely found it to be valuable in hearing about new jobs that are open for colleagues, keeping up with technology and lately even the news. (Scobleizer was one of the first ones to report the earthquake in China - even before it hit the news wires).
  5. Its addictive so watch out. Join in me at:

  20. Yeah, we use it. It took us a while to get up and running with it, but once we did we started making some connections and building relationships. This will surely help us keep abreast of things within our industry and also allow us to promote items we have going on.
