The following is a guest post by Wendy Moore.
Don’t #1: Protected Updates
Protecting your updates is fine but not if you’re on Twitter to expand your network. It’s a social networking site so if you’re there, you’re better off to socialise with as many people as you can. Making yourself available exclusively to [...]

HooteSuite

Kathie @ 8:24 AM on May 27, 2009

HooteSuite claims to be the ultimate toolbox for Twitter users.   Apparently you can have multiple profiles on it, track your success, pre-schedule tweets and run searches. I have been using another multiple profile platform but can’t do searches on it so I might just give this one a try.  It seems to be in Beta [...]


Does Follow - who follows who?

Kathie @ 8:05 AM on May 26, 2009

If you really want to know who is following who then you can use DoesFollow.  You get a big fat red NOPE if the follow isn’t happening.  Fun to play with.
I wonder why people think these things up?


We Fol-low

Kathie @ 8:10 AM on May 25, 2009

Twitter runs a small profile on Twitter tools in the right hand menu just under the followers count and they’re always worth checking out.  Well, most of the time.

Trending Topics

This will help you if you’re looking to join in conversations and not sure where to start.

How do you use Twitter?

Kathie @ 7:34 AM on May 22, 2009

Almost everyone who joins Twitter is bewildered as to how they should use it. For awhile you feel like you’re travelling in the dark and that’s probably close to the truth.  It takes a while for the light to come on.
One thing that helped me was that I clicked to see who was following those [...]


Twesents - are we doing a FB copy now?

Kathie @ 7:47 AM on May 21, 2009

Saw a tweet from a friend about people sending Twesents so of couse I had to go see what that was about.
It’s a way to send a virtual gift or present (Twesent) to followers. Not really sure of the benefit from this. Seems almost like poking or other things you can get at FaceBook. Don’t [...]
