News and current events tweeted in limerick style. Author SUCCESS In the Words of the Masters. In bookstores now.
Listorious Interview
I think the Twitter population has covered every conceivable use of Twitter.
I have met several published authors and have attended a number of book signings because of connections made on Twitter.
No, if anything, I think I should tweet more.
I haven't yet. But I expect to use it for announcements when my book is published this summer.
Do you think Twitter should do something about Mafia family invitations, & silly surveys I just took what icecream flavor, etc. clogging DMs?
I can't think of any.
I guess the obvious would be Oprah, Jane Fonda, Stephen King, James Patterson and other famous authors.
I love the creativity one sees when there are trends such as making up song titles, or creating words. Trenders come up with great material.
Since all my tweets are limericks about news and current events, I pay a lot of attention to trending topics.
I'm addicted to News and find I now rely on Twitter for current and timely info. I must log in daily -- morning, noon and night.
All my tweets are composed in Limerick form. That and the 140 limitation make it very challenging and good exercise for the brain.
1. My husband, 2. Computer/Internet/Twitter, 3. News, 4. Coffee, 5.Haagan Daz, and 6. Luca, my little Yorkshire Terrier
To combat the isolation that comes with working at home.
Health care reform.
Direct Messaging that filters out the games and viral gifts and MLM offers. I find they are rendering DM's very difficult to get through.
I have to admit I haven't created one yet. But let me think about it.
I like the words success, love, and thank you. I never shorten love to luv and I avoid changing thanks into thx. They are important words.
At the risk of being unoriginal, I would have to say @Mashable. Never have so few, imparted so much, to so many.
Using @ reply when DM is more appropriate. Not everything should be public especially criticism.
Until I have something meaningful to tweet about - again, it's news and topical headlines. Fortunately there is much going on in the world.
The crowd in NY with ambition/Came to the Top Model audition/It got ugly, none tested/Some hurt, some arrested/Tyra Banks aborted the mission
There was a time when I noticed a plethora of twitter accounts with a pornographic Britney Spears avatar. I unfollowed and blocked!
Just one? I love WhattheTrend, WhenDidYouJoinTwitter, and DoesFollow.
