Can anyone help Vegas Bob (Tweet at Twitter)?

I joined Twitter a long time ago and really haven't been spending enough time on the Twitter network. I have been advised by many different people that Twitter has been (Hot) for some time.

One of my main reasons I don't spend much time on Twitter is because I am like a (Babe in the woods), and I would rather be a professional hiker, etc. in the woods.

I am searching for a few members of Twitter that would like to help (Vegas Bob) learn and understand the big (Buzz) & steps so I can (Tweet at Twitter).

I would like to spend a a couple hours for a few days with a couple volunteers.

I have posted around 900 blogs at "The Rain" and have mastered a crowd! Now I would like to communicate with members of Activerain & Twitter and chat!

I will continue to post to Activerain the same as I usually do, so Twitter is not going to put a damper on AR for me.

If you would like to leave Vegas Bob some tips on twitter please do and if you would like to help me (Tweet at Twitter) please send me a email.

I will be available during the days any time after 3:00 pm (Pacific time)

I also formed a group at (Tweet Deck) and I don't have a clue how to use it!

I look forward to reading your comments so I can (Tweet at Twitter)!

PS - I changed my Twitter name from Robert Swetz to VegasBob777

I wish I could help, but I still am fumbling around with this. I have Tweetdeck and don't really know how to use it......just haven't had time to figure it out. Good luck with it!

It will be hard for me to be much help because I'm lost, lost, lost. I have been signed up for quite some time and have a couple hundred people that I'm following but I find it so hard to follow. So I'm curious how did you change your name? Did you have to start a whole new twitter profile?

Bob, I'm here for you! @ValuePagesGroup You should change your twitter icon on your blog to reflect your new twitter name so you can get some new friends!

There's so many different ways to use Twitter, it would probably be smart to do a little brainstorming and figure out what your goals are with the platform. Do you want to network with other agents? Do you want to network with local businesses? Do you want to network with anyone who might be visiting Vegas? By knowing your goals and prioritizing them, you'll be a step ahead on putting together a practical game plan to use Twitter.

Bob, try just following some people close to you. Strike up conversations with them. If you find one person on Twitter from Vegas, check their contacts to see if there are more. Tweet about "stuff" that interests you. Listen to what others are tweeting and try to find some common ground. Twittering can lead to meeting IRL with people in your city. That's what's great about it. Maybe you can get involved in a Twestival or a TweetUp.

I would listen to some of the JCKC shows on BlogTalkRadio.com - Twitter Tuesday and now Social Media Edge. Each show has some great Twitter application tips and general tips on how to effectively use social media.

Your link to Twitter on your sidebar worked for me. I did not see any AR blog posts going to your twitter. Do you have that set up (from your home page at AR?). ~Rita

Surprisingly, I haven't joined up on Twitter yet Robert, not because I couldn't or have great fun and business relationships with it, but to me it is about TIME. I have to figure something else to give up to connect. You be my guinea pig Robert and let me know how you master it.

Well you know I'm almost always hanging out on twitter I'd be happy to help you in anyway that I can. Twitter is just sort of something that I just do nowadays. I don't really consider myself a pro or anything. I don't even use tweetdeck so your ahead of me there. Anyway if there's anything I can do for you feel free to contact me at justin@vizionkc.com I like the name change by the way.

I can't Tweet yet because I have too much to say and I just don't want to spend time trying to condense my words into a bunch of gobbledegook that takes up a mere 140 characters.

See what I mean? I could have just said:

I don't do Twitter.

LOL

I would like to thank every one for their comments and your comments are very important to me. If for any reason you ask me a question in your comment and I do not come back with a reply to your comment please send me a email.

I write about so many different things and post so many photographs that I lose track. It's very important to me to interact with Activerain Members when they are commenting on my posts!

Once again thanks for your comments and "Have a wonderful day"
