I think my life has settled down again, so I'll be following the posting "schedule" more closely. One of the reasons that working for myself is a huge blessing is that my family can and does come first. I've made a vow to never take on more clients than will allow me to live by that maxim.
Since I've returned to Wordizm I've been keeping myself busy with the set up of the new website, lots of blogging and Twittering away. In fact, I just sent out my 200th Twitter, and I still stand by my opinion that it is a fabulous tool with much potential. As a client that started out as mobile mini-IM/blog, Twitter has grown far beyond the initial scope. For microblogging, e-advertising, and building a bridge with your clients or peers, Twitter's ease of use can't be beat. I think the three most compelling “features”, if you will, of the Twitterverse are the immediacy of interaction, the accessibility to users in many different fields and the ability to tie Twitter into many other networks.
I've experimented over the last week with the FutureTweets application and with a few tweaks I think I will find many uses for it. I love how easy it makes setting up a series of scheduled tweets. Twitter on Facebook had been acting up but I think it has settled down and is running as smoothly as the MySpace application. The Twitter feed to my blog has cross-posted without fail since set up and I am looking at linking the Twitter for my friends at emPower to their emPower blog.
But is anyone listening or are we just tweeting in the dark? Time will tell, but I'd be willing to bet that marketing through twollowers re-tweeting me is just the tip of the iceberg. The use of Twitter will grow as more people realize that the potential of Twitter extends far beyond gossipmongering and celebrity-Twitter-mania, and as the Twitterverse grows in its diversity, so will its usage.
As always, thanks for reading. Be good to each other,
