Listorious Interview
I call myself out! I am an addict - Tweeting from my blackberry as I stand in line, workout or wait for the train.
Be more authentic. Stop plugging your blog every two seconds. If people like your tweets, they'll search out more info on you.
I was followed by and in turn able to meet my interior design icon, Vicente Wolf.
It's been great for introducing me to people in the event planning, design, and blogging. It's opened doors for some new potential projects.
I love the interaction. The feedback. The conversation.
Isabella Rossellini. I find her fascinating, I'd like to interact with her. My mom. It would make it easier for her to keep up with my life!
I'd like to be acknowledged/followed back by @design_sponge. I respond to her a lot, but never get even an @reply back.
It has opened up my network exponentially. Twitter has introduced me to so many incredible, creative, and talented people.
I tweet only about what interests me. So in essence, it IS unique!
Twitter is a little like high school. The RT'ing of ABSOLUTELY everything that the "cool kids" are saying is a funny trend.
Mr. D, warm sun on my face, NYC, home cooked food, espresso, my family
I liked the idea of broadening my blog readership, micro-blogging + the fact that it would appear as new content on ABCD Design.
Nesting, Entertaining, Recipes, Slow-Food Movement, Organic, Authenticity, Design, Interior Design, Décor, Knitting, Craft, Ephemera
In theory, I lived 33 years without. In reality... 12 hours?
When you're looking at your follower list, you should be able to see the bio of the person following you, not their last Tweet.
When people auto-dm you to thank you for following. It's like spam. I always un-follow immediately.
#nesting is where we tweet about all things having to do with domestic bliss. Baking, cooking, entertaining, recipes, homemaking
I am not a big one for shortening words. I almost always spell out almost everything, including and, before, too, to, for, etc.
Liene Stevens @thinksplendid - she has interesting content, writes a nice mix of personal tweets into her business tweets
Yes. I'll un-follow if their tweets are always negative. If I've been following them for a long time and they never interact with me.
My best tweets are when I let my inner brat out and am a little snarky. It always gets the most interaction.
Fill out your bio and link to your proper url. Do NOT set up an Auto-DM that goes out to new followers. It's like spam.
Twitter app... I use http://bit.ly/ as my url shortener. It's fun to see who is reading what and which posts interest my followers.
