Problogger on Twitter

Posted by Pixelhead

Problogger.com Darren Rowse’s latest Twitter posts I received in my email this morning 35 Twitter Tips from 35 Twitter Users, 9 Benefits of Twitter for Bloggers, and How to Use Twitter – Tips for Bloggers(yesterday). Well seeing all these great Twitter posts from Darren, made me realize, I had yet to add him to my Twitter. So I clicked on Darrens link, logged on and added him.

Skimming through all three of Darren’s posts, I realize there are a ton of mistakes that I have made while using Twitter. Probably my biggest mistake is not doing it enough. I had been on a regular daily Twitter schedule, but within the last several months, I have found myself tweeting less and less. Darren suggests scheduling several minutes in the morning and at night to tweet.

A few Problogger Suggestions:

Use multiple Twitter profiles for different purposes such as one for different blogs you may have. I actually had been thinking about setting up one for family and friends in addition to my blogging profile.
Use goals for your Twittering to get organized and more focused.
Use Twitter for Research
Promote Content- use TwitterFeed to publish your blog feed headlines. Did it,thanks for the reminder Darren.
Use it for Speedlinking- find a cool blog post, tweet it.

Well any way, if you are looking for information about using Twitter to Network, be sure to check out all three of the Problogger posts mentioned above which are sure to be great Twitter resources for both new and experienced Twitter users.

It looks like your feeds go directly to feedburner; are you using twitter feed? Are they compatible?

You’re the second person I respect highly in about a week to rave about Twitter. Seems like I really should have a look…

Forrest, I signed up with Twitterfeed the other day, and it does seem to be working fine. If you don’t mind short little micro-blogging bursts, twitter is great.

I see some interesting uses for Twitter, but I can’t seem to get into it myself… the concept is cool, and it’s caught on big-time. I like the idea of using it for research, and I’ve found a lot of marketers are tweeting now.

I use Twitter mostly for consuming information. It’s slowly replaced my feed reader as the main source of daily information. Of course I extend that to using it for reasearch as well. Occasionally, I’ll even tweet a link that I want to remember (I backup my tweets using the Lifestream WordPress plugin).
