Listorious Interview

What are some recent topics or trends you've discussed on Twitter?

Nothing specific comes to mind, but it was probably political, whatever it was.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Do you find Twitter lists useful and can you name any follow-worthy lists?

I do. I usually just stumble into other people's lists. I like to see what people other people find interesting.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What feature should Twitter add?

List-specific tweets that only are visible to members of specific lists. Oh, and in 3D. Like Avatar. Only better.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What are some big Twitter faux pas?

@replying when you mean to DM and retweeting when you mean to quote. And geotagging yourself in a public restroom.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Who do you admire most for his or her use of Twitter?

Tie between @rainnwilson and @RobHuebel

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?

I try never to shorten. Ever. I'll break up my thoughts into multiple tweets, which happens frequently if I get in a ranting mood.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What's your best tweet?

The next one. Stupid Question. Next!

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

I refuse to join your 'gang', I don't want to fill out your survey and I don't want to know how to get 10k followers. You will be unfollowed

140 characters of advice for a new user?

Select 'Public' and overshare as much as humanly possible. Don't give up if you don't get it right away. And choose a good pic.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What's the most interesting connection you've made through Twitter?

Got a tweet from @JoeTrippi, which totally blew my mind.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What was the funniest trend you've seen?

That month where 'Twilight' references were the only thing we saw trending. That was hilarious. Ugh.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Ever get called out for tweeting too much?

Yes. That and I tweet too many pics of dogs wearing funny costumes.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What question are we not asking here that we should?

What do you consider an overshare? How much of your tweeting is done from a mobile device, which one?

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Is there someone you want to follow you who doesn't already? If so, who?

OMG, @PerezHilton. Hands down. Not political in the slightest, but he gets how blogging SHOULD be done.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

How do you use Twitter in your professional life?

I use twitter to communicate with the media, bring attention to important political issues and, of course, shameless self-promotion.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What inspires you to tweet?

People being stupid or links being awesome.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?

Twitter has done everything from helping put my youtube videos on national TV to getting me advice on snow tires!

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

How do you make your tweets unique?

I try to be funny. I also avoid holding back and being politically correct.

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

What are six things you could never do without?

iPhone, Twitter, enormous office couch, TV, Macbook, Diet Coke

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Terms you wish would start trending on Twitter right now?

#StarWarsPornName #ImADoctor #HookersForRomney #StraightToDVD #TeamOrly #PoliticalNinja

Dusty Trice in response to Listorious

Why'd you start tweeting?

The little twitteriffic icon for the iphone was so cute I figured I should check out what Twitter was. Been going ever since.
