The Most Amazing Video - Using Re-Twit'd Application

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Showcase Homes

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 What an inspirational video You MUST watch this! I'm bawling!!!"  Well that was something I could not pass up!  Here is a link to the video she was referring to (retweeted 7 times).  It's called "Are You Going To Finish Strong".

One of the people I follow is Pete Cashmore @mashable.  He had tweeted about a Twitter section on his Mashable Blog--this is where I get a majority of my news on Twitter and other things relating to Social Media.  One of the stories was about introducing re-Twit'd.  If you love Twitter like I do, I suggest your check out this site and follow him - AFTER YOU WATCH THE VIDEO!

And, if you haven't checked out my most recent post about Twirl - Tweetdeck - Twitterific: Which is Best?  , I suggest you choose an application to manage your tweets - @mashable is in one of my groups called Twitter and SEO - this way I am fairly certain not to miss a lot of his great posts.  If you still aren't embracing Twitter then Twitter for Beginners - On the Fence - Read This.

Cathy, Are you Twitterized? Or Twitteraddicted?  Funny, I always thought I was following you on Twitter and I just clicked your little follow icon and found out I wasn't!!! No wonder I have not figured the whole thing out.  Okay, now I am going to check out some of this.

Hi Cathy, good to know about this. I will try to check into it tomorrow. Haven't been there much the past few days. I've been swamped and not very interesting to tweet! LOL

Karen:  I think I am Twitteraddicted - but find I can drag myself away to get work done.  Thanks for the follow - about time LOL.  The video was very moving - I think I had heard of it before - but don't remember every watching it.

Lizette:  I find so much to blog about because of Twitter - always felt so behind the times before this.  It makes sense since Twitter is about the conversations of NOW - news breaking tweets.

Speaking of "breaking tweets," Cathy, I encourage you to check out www.breakingtweets.com.  It's a new site that tracks tweets all over the world on the latest news!  Just started it this past weekend and update daily.  Excited to see where it goes.  Feel free to spread the word.  (On Twitter too at @breakingtweets.)
