The point of Twitter is not just to follow people for the sake of following. The point is to follow people who share similar interests as you and engage with your audience by sharing resources and information. Twitter is an excellent medium for networking, marketing, socializing and more. When used wisely. .-= Warren Laidler´s last blog ... <a href="http://warrenlaidler.com/tutorials-other-resources/learn-it-all-with-lynda-com-video-tutorials/" rel="nofollow">Learn it all with Lynda.com Video Tutorials</a> =-.

Sure, we can have our face everywhere on Twitter, but we end up sifting through hundreds or maybe even thousands of non niche related products. We are subjected to loads of Spam, that take forever to sift out. (Spam Filters...Right!) Choosing the people we follow and the people we allow to follow us does have an impact on our time, and we all know what time is, and just like any other form of advertising, it has to be strategic by nature. Why place an ad for fingernail polish on a motorsports website? I don't know off hand what the odds would be of someone clicking on that ad, but I would be willing to bet that they aren't good. I think some people are just thrilled to see a really big number at the top of their Twitter account. I really enjoy reading your articles and watching your videos. Your doing a great job and please continue! Your loaded with very powerful insight. Go Girl! Hello Lisa,

You're right that the community is largely very casual, and that can cause a bit of confusion...people still want what's valuable and engaging to them. Just because it's casual doesn't mean anything goes. If you're on Twitter for a purpose, your tweets need to be purposefully composed :) Bravo! .-= Christian´s last blog ... <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/NextLevelBlogger/~3/Sms3HmPTpfY/" rel="nofollow">How to Make Money Online Without Being a Schmuck or a Spammer</a> =-.
