Twitter: I am at work_matters

I have taken my sweet time trying learning about twitter but I finally am beginning to make the plunge.  Tim Keely (who does a great job of helping me with all things IT, I would be lost without him) and I are going to be messing with this blog a bit to weave Twitter into this blog over the next couple months, and is always the case, I expect it will take me awhile to understand how to use this in ways that are fun and useful.   

My user name is work_matters. 

If you have any advice about how to use this thing, especially to link people to my blog, please let me know. Thanks!  I will tweet this post, which will be, I think, my fourth one.

    Bob, welcome to twitter.
    I blog on wordpress and it automatically converts my blog to a tweet once the feature is enabled.
    Way to go.

    Bob — glad to see you’re on Twitter now. To make the most of it, please do more than simply pipe your RSS feed to Twitter, since a robot can do that. Make an effort to engage in conversation and talk to people and maybe link your Twitter acct to Google Buzz to allow for more lengthy replies.

    Bob, I recommend checking out HootSuite. You can easily manage your tweets, see your mentions and direct messages, and shorten your links. The Android app is great too — it pops mentions up on my phone.

    And I concur with Jindo Fox — conversations on Twitter are important too.

    Welcome. I’ll follow you, my twitter name is @flinchbaugh.
    First, I recommend not looking at it primarily as a place to promote your blog. Instead, look at it as a way to listen, to engage, and to discuss. Twitter is two-way conversation, often even more-so than the comments on a blog.
    Second, I recommend the book Sociable!. It’s a good primer on social media for people that aren’t or have no intention of becoming social media experts but want to engage.
