Listorious Interview

Have you ever unfollowed someone? Who and why?

Hell yes. All the time. If you overtweet, undertweet, don't follow me & we've engaged, & if you spam. & if there's a dick in your avatar.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What's your favorite Twitter app?

I use Tweetdeck. It's my digital Snuggie.

Reply to others more than you start conversations and build relationships!

Lauren in response to Listorious

Ever get called out for tweeting too much?

Nope. I suppose that if a follower of mine thought that I over-tweeted he/she would unfollow me. I know I would.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What was the funniest trend you've seen?

Creating one's own hashtag. I rock #bacon and #whatev.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What question are we not asking here that we should?

Shouldn't this be the LAST question?

Lauren in response to Listorious

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

Not really. I wouldn't mind if @Mashable would follow me back.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What inspires you to tweet?

LIFE. The news, my kiddo, blogging, and replying to my tweeps.

Lauren in response to Listorious

How do you make your tweets unique?

By WRITING IN CAPS. I keep it real.

Lauren in response to Listorious

Has Twitter changed your life? If yes, how?

It has changed my life in a profound way that nothing else has before. Except motherhood.

Lauren in response to Listorious

Why'd you start tweeting?

A friend of mine invited me to join Twitter and I thought it was stupid. That was 2 years ago. Now he never tweets. I WIN.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What feature should Twitter add?

I personally think that Twitter is PERFECT.

Lauren in response to Listorious

@QueenofSpain and @JessicaGottlieb

Lauren in response to Listorious

What are some big Twitter faux pas?

Not @ anyone. You are NOT cool enough to do that. Also, following celebrities. They will NOT follow you back, homie.

Lauren in response to Listorious

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

I personally hate shortening anything I write. TLA's are annoying.

Lauren in response to Listorious

What's your best tweet?

Um, not to sound smug but ALL of my tweets are my favorites. I'm kind of awesome. #whatev

Lauren in response to Listorious

How long can you go without a tweet?

Not too long. I've tweeted eleven times since I started this interview.
