In this movie, author Richard Harrington walks you through some posting strategies that you can use when posting to Twitter.
- A service that's not as broadly popular is Twitter,…but it does seem to connect well…with those who have a bit more disposable income…and higher education.…It's used a lot by people…that want just the information,…and less social with their social media.…But Twitter is an effective platform…if you know how to use it.…So with Twitter, it essentially allows you to micro-blog.…You're sending out short bursts of content…that are like texts.…Think of it as a news feed.…You are limited currently to 140 characters,…although they continue to adapt this rule…and they're starting to make it easier…to attach media or links…that don't count against those characters.…
You can add links, photos, and videos…that allow you to actually share content…right in the stream.…What's useful is you can follow people…that you consider influential…or that you want to learn from,…and they can choose to follow you back or not.…What's nice is that you don't…have to be friends with each other,…so you can follow influencers,…or people who are interested in your content can follow you,…
