Twitter: UPDATE


A few weeks ago I posted about Twitter. I admitted that I was clueless and really didn't think that I would learn very much from using it. However, I did.


Not only have I learned something, I'm really enjoying my Twitter experience. The first thing I did was search the key word, public relations to see who would come up. I read bios and those who I found interesting I followed. My next step was to tweet using the word social media. About an hour or so after my tweet, I was being followed! It has been a few weeks later and I have around 47 followers and am following 46 others. Everyday I receive updates on social media, conferences, marketing trends, news briefs and other information that I find useful as a public relations professional learning about social media. So, everyday I try to post something useful to others and in turn gain followers who I am interested in following myself.


For all of you non-Twitter users, does this make sense? What complications do you run into when using or trying to understand Twitter? Let me know and I will try to help!

I'm not real sure what to do on Twitter! I became an official Twitterer (or whatever I'm called!) but I'm not real sure what I'm doing. We'll be talking at work this week! It seems interesting though. And just reading about what you're learning by being on Twitter makes me want to get into it more. Let's download!
