If you are like most people who are new to social media, there are always 2 questions you may have about Twitter.
- What is Twitter
- Why do I care what people are doing?
A brief overview of Twitter:
- Micro Blog (Posts up to 140 characters) – AKA “One To Many Instant Messenger”
- Similar to a big chat room, but you can choose who you will follow
- Ability to follow and engage many people at once
- It’s public and archived on the web
- The most interactive and reactive Social Networking tool on the Net.
- Users experience “Reverse Honeymoon Effect” – Don’t care for the tool at first, but they quickly grow passionate about it as they see the business potential.
