What feature should Twitter add?

The ability to somehow keep a referring tweet 'with you' as you navigate to a link posted on Twitter, maybe in an iframe.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?

While I was the Executive Editor of the @SayfieReview, I helped create #sayfie which has become a huge success among FL politicos.

What are some big Twitter faux pas?

Severely editing someone's tweet and then attributing it as a retweet and automated DMs to new followers.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

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

I very rarely shorten anything for brevity. I don't subscribe to the idea that 140 characters gives you a license to disregard all grammar.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

I have unfollowed a few people for posting blatantly irresponsible news and political commentary.

140 characters of advice for a new user?

Always ask yourself if what you are tweeting is providing more value to your followers than it is to you.

Ever get called out for tweeting too much?

Thankfully, no. I think my followers and I have found a happy medium.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

What do you wish people would do more of on Twitter?

Listen more, broadcast less. Twitter should be a platform for people to engage, not just strictly promote.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

How do you use Twitter in your professional life?

I use Twitter to provide my influential Twitter followers with news, info and tips. That in turn makes me a valued resource to them.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

What inspires you to tweet?

Valuable tips from others and breaking news.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

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

I have developed valuable relationships with reporters at the national and state level that would not have happened without Twitter.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

Who do you wish had a Twitter feed but doesn't?

Former Florida Governor, Jeb Bush. He has reserved a Twitter handle (@cgables43) but has yet to tweet.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?

Absolutely. Twitter has helped me establish a significant niche for my career and has opened up valuable relationships.

Jordan Raynor in response to Listorious

How do you make your tweets unique?

I started tweeting in order to promote the @SayfieReview
