Listorious Interview

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

There's no one individual I especially admire. The Obama campaign's use of Twitter was brilliant and @stephenfry has been very entertaining.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What's your best tweet?

It's better to be a smart-ass than a dumb-ass.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

I have unfollowed individuals when cleaning up my follow list and they have not been active at all in six months or more.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

140 characters of advice for a new user?

Dive into Twitter - have fun, share information and resources, praise others, educate, entertain, promote community, be smart & laugh a lot.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

Ever get called out for tweeting too much?

No - but I've lost followers after a busy bevy of tweets on a specific topic. Not necessarily a major concern for me.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

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

Hmmm...not much. I like the mix of sharing fun, knowledge, resources, entertainment and the mundane.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

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

I've made a number of great connections with artists, designers, writers, photographers and others that have evolved into the real world.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

How do you use Twitter in your professional life?

I use Twitter to direct traffic to my blogs, articles, books, public appearances and share design accomplishments/info of others.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What inspires you to tweet?

Being home-based and self-employed, I'm inspired to connect with the somewhat real world through Twitter.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

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

I think a Twitter feed from the great beyond would be quite an accomplishment - Harry Houdini, perhaps...

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

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

I'd like @Duffy_Partners & @espiekermann to follow me. I invite them to write forewards to my new book "Logo Type"

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

How do you make your tweets unique?

Giving "props" to industry peers, directing followers to valuable resources and an occasional "Twoot! Twoot!" make my tweets stand out.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?

Twitter has changed my career quite a bit. I now sometimes teach others about social networking and have greater exposure around the world.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What was the funniest trend you've seen?

Any trend about bodily functions always tickles the college fraternity boy in me.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What are six things you could never do without?

My partner Ed, a community of friends, my garden, books, art and humor.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

Why'd you start tweeting?

I was humiliated into using Twitter by an industry peer who was tweeting about me not making use of the resource.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What feature should Twitter add?

A cocktail "happy hour" on Friday afternoons.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

How long can you go without a tweet?

I survived ten days in the wilderness, on a gold-mining trip, without a tweet. I don't know that I could last much longer.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

Hashtag you created that you wish everyone used?

I tend to use #stupid #silly and #justsaying quite a bit. I've used some ridiculously long ones on occasion - but don't remember them.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

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

I will usually edit words from tweets before shortening for brevity with abbreviations - that's the writer in me.

Jeff Fisher in response to Listorious

What are some big Twitter faux pas?

On a couple occasions I have mistakenly publicly tweeted what should have been very private direct message responses.
