I am comfortable with most social media, but still don't get twitter. Oh well.
Love, love, LOVE the PHOTO! ... and I'm with Sandy ... I still don't get Twitter, either.
Sandy and Judith - Thanks for commenting, but did you read the post and was it helpful?
Yes I read the post .. "helpful" is in the mind of the beholder, I'm sure. A good explanation how it works for you ... thank you ... I am not inclined at this time to pursue. Perhaps later ... ?

Sara - Let me know how yo umake out with it! Have you tried Tweetdeck for the iPhone?
Good advice. There are many that join a platform in web 2.0 and then wait, wondering why exponential results don't just happen. You have to feed the platform, just like blogging.
Hi Jason - These are good tips. I don't write on twitter as much as I did at first, but I do follow a lot of people, and yet I get new followers every day. I have done some search terms and got some leads, but my best results have been by posting links to my blog.
Andrew - So true! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Susan - I generate traffic to my blog by posting links, but that traffic doesn't always convert to anything. Whatever it takes to strike up a conversation that both parties are passionate about, is worth considering.
Thanks Jason, I think I've been doing it backwards! I expect them to read my post so I'm going to use your approach in the new year.
Valorie - I can't wait to hear how you make out with it. Thanks for reading and commenting!
Jason - I'm still a Twitter novice. Thanks for the tips, I think this may help.
John - Don't give up! Let me know how you make out. Thanks for commenting!
I am not sure I get the idea of Twitter either. Been reading alot about the benefits and I am going to give this a try. Thanks
Diane - I hope this helps. I would love an update. Keep me posted and let me know if I can help.
Thanks so much for this insightful post about twitter. I am going to put your advice into immediate action. Quick question: any thought to posting only business related content, or should there be a mix of business and personal?
