I Caught the Bug

Although I have been on Twitter for a bit now, I never understood it, never even really used it. It all changed this week and now I have come to appreciate it. I always thought it was a silly application where I would log in and see that @fredsmith was sitting in a cafe drinking his favourite latte or @sallysmith was going to her grandmother’s 80th birthday. It seemed very boring and well I never saw the value of it.

Needless to say, this week I needed a favour - posted it and received a solution in a matter of 5 minutes,( Thanks again Sameer!) so I poked around and actually paid attention to some conversations, and Boom! Found out for myself that Twitter was actually useful!

That being said, here are some of the functionalities I have found in my short time in the Twitter world ( I’m so new I don’t even know the proper terminology)

1) Pose Questions - Get Answers

Unsure of something? Need to survey a group of people in a limited time. Need more insight into that last minute paper you are writing? Pose the question and receive feedback - immediately.

2) Connect, Connect, Connect!

Okay, we already have facebook, we have linkedin, email and telephone. We are already an uber-connected world, how the heck can twitter help? Twitter is instantaneous. It’s public and you can get a variety of interesting perspectives in a short amount of time - cost free and timely - best keywords around.

3) Need Advice?

Looking for advice on whether to buy a Mac or a PC? Need to know the name of a catchy song on a new commercial? Pose the question and I will assure you, you will get the answers you are looking for, in real time for reputable people.

4) Conference & Event Updates

Live in a Remote location? Or just hung up at the office? Rest aside, there’s the super handy Twitter again - It has the ability to get numerous people online, insta-blogging from their location right to your bedroom, office wherever you are online. Broke? Well you never have to justify the ridiculous conference fees ever again!….. Well, I step back. It’s probably not the same as attending the events life as you miss out on real-life human interaction, but it’s damn close and well pratical too!

For more information.. I found this article written by DoshDosh with 17 more ways to use twitter - so please enjoy!

Nevertheless - I have the Twitter bug. They got me. find me @chrissychrzan
