twitter: Tweeting The Content of Others on ActiveRain--Better than Reblog - 03/23/09 12:13 AM
The AIG fiasco has been the focus of much opinion and emotional conversation.  My nephew posted a thought about it on his Facebook page and I made a quick uninformed comment.  My niece (his sister) responded with a lot of interesting points about what is really going on.  Shortly after, I read AIG is just a Smokescreen! by Katerina Gasset - a well written and informative view about the reality of what is going on with AIG and the bailout. 
I was sure my niece would enjoy reading it and posted a link on her Facebook page.  The ActiveRain logo came … (44 comments)

twitter: Twestival & Twitter Support - Two Sites You Want To Check Out! - 02/01/09 11:30 AM
As I do almost daily, I watch the Twitter Stream and check in on a few of my favorites--and always adding to my list of all things Twitter.  And, as a good Tweeter should, I find many that I want to RT (retweet) to acknowledge the contribution that certain tweets have provided for me and the community of followers.
People are always asking me "what is Twitter" or the "how to" of it.  On this site, you will find under Help Resources Getting Started-- which includes:  Frequently Asked Questions, Posting a Twitter update, or "tweet" , and so much more.  There are "How … (4 comments)

twitter: The Most Amazing Video - Using Re-Twit'd Application - 01/10/09 06:45 PM
I have been posting a lot about Twitter and why you should join and all the great applications I find as I explore the Twittersteam.  This evening, after shoveling snow, getting my showing appointments made and my listing presentation complete (Not much Twittering tomorrow), I indulged in an hour or so of Twitter.  I found a new application called re-Twit'd.  This application lets you see what's hot on Twitter based on how frequently something is retweeted.  You can find the most popular tweets by most retweeted in hours, day, week and fortnight.  When I checked it out, there was a retweet saying "OMG … (5 comments)

twitter: Twirl - Tweetdeck - Twitterific: Which is Best? - 01/09/09 05:44 PM
I have been deeply immersed in Twitter since I joined over a month ago.  In my first post about Twitter for Beginners - On the Fence, I talked about how I avoided it for well over a year and am completely sold on how much value it provides.  Since then, I have been finding new applications, ways to find people to follow and so much more.
As of this post, I am following 506 people with 446 following me.  There are different goals and philosophies on how many to follow and why you choose to follow who you do.  Clearly with over 500 … (8 comments)

twitter: Shorty Awards - Find & Follow Best Producers of Short Content on Twitter - 01/02/09 03:58 PM
For those of you still on the fence about Twitter, you really are missing the opportunity to immediately access and follow some of the top voices in the field of technology, social media and really any field you have an interest in.  The true value I find on Twitter is to follow those who are influencing the fields I am interested in.  That is the beauty of Twitter - a conversation NOW in Real time - where we get to listen and interact with the creative process of people.
I posted about following the Elite through Twitter Grader but the Shorty Awards are an even better way to … (4 comments)

twitter: Twitter for Business & Using Twitter Alerts - 12/19/08 12:24 PM
We have all heard about keeping track of what is being said about us on the web by utilizing Google Alerts.  Well, you can do the same with Tweetbeep.  You can keep track of conversations that mention you, your local community (which is what I do with Google) and a keyword on any topic that you want to hear about that is being twittered.  It also says you can even keep track of who's tweeting your website or blog, even if they use a shortened URL (like tinyurl.com).  I haven't tried the latter but have set alerts up about the communities … (6 comments)

twitter: How To Follow the Elite on Twitter & Are you One? - 12/15/08 09:50 PM
Finally embracing Twitter (part 1) there is a Following to be built.  With a lot of ways to find people and businesses, first you have to decide on WHY you want to Twitter.  For me it started as being about business.  Always looking for ways to promote my business, it was about promoting listings, local communities and to encourage people to choose me to assist them with their Real Estate needs.  I have found it is that and so much more.
Following people from ActiveRain was the first step.  I listened to RainRadio(already knew about @bradandersohn) and heard about @kimwood, @pchaney and @myrtlebeachblog.  Once … (49 comments)

twitter: Twitter for Beginners - On the Fence - Read This - 12/11/08 06:59 PM
I avoided Twitter!  I have heard about it for a long time on ActiveRain-people twittering each other at conferences, commenting on how fast a conversation reaches everyone and how many responses they get to a question.  If I joined Twitter, that would be the final straw that broke by blogging back!  But, it is here to stay! 
Finally I started commenting "I have heard about it and can't ignore it any longer" - and yes, "I will join this weekend" (when I had more time).  Or, "I have bookmarked this post and will come back". . . (you know the rest).  … (22 comments)

twitter: Finding Past Clients on Facebook - I am excited - 12/11/08 04:17 PM
Facebook has been great for me with keeping up with my family and friends.  I have a niece in Korea - teaching English without having to know Korean - and she shares videos, pictures and so much more with all of us.  It wouldn't be possible for her to keep up with so many of us without it.  I have found people I used to work with and see that they have had babies etc.  I can keep up with so many people - including friends I have found on ActiveRain.  But what really took it to the next level is … (8 comments)
