Simple Yet Powerful Twitter Tips for Twitterland And Your Twitter Town

Hello Twitter Twitter Town-How are you Today?

Hello My Little Twitter Town-How Are You Today?

I am still learning each time I read a Tweet on Twitter or make a mistake. Yet, there are bloggers like Problogger who has mastered some great Twitter techniques. For example, I attempt to post things that folks that follow me might want to hear. But I am careful to take time and retweet interesting tweets that are appearing at that moment.

When you think about it Twitter is just like face to face discussions in a group. When I facilitate a group I am careful to encourage the silent folks in the group to say something. At the same time I try to discourage domination by one or two people in the group.

In addition, most groups work best when the size is small and not huge. So, I am not under compulsion to have a BIG TWITTER LIST.

Well, I never want to be the person who just talks about me, me and more me in a group.  Nor, do I want to be the quiet person all the time that does not feel my content has worth. So, those things stay on my mind when I am on Twitter.

Of course, I must admit, sometimes I go on Twitter when I feel like the pixels in my brain are frozen from fatigue. Then Twitter becomes therapy.

Examples of How Some Non-Profits Use Twitter

I like the following post because it gives you some great examples of how Twitter is being used by many non-profits. As a baby boomer I thrive of experiance-based technology applications. Ok, what I mean is show me someone who is using it and then I believe you.

So, in my continuing look into many of the practical applications of Twitter I was happy to see this post by a social media expert. 

Also, I appreciate this great overview of Twitter by another social media expert.

Twitter and Non-Profits-Are Baby Boomers Involved?

Many baby boomers are involved in non-profits. Many baby boomers are also exploring Twitter. That means baby boomers are exploring the huge possibilites for social networking to help promote their “difference Making Messages.” I say yes. Read this excellent post on Twitter and Non-profits.
