Twitter – What Do You Like Most About It?
To be brutally honest when I first heard about Twitter I just didn’t get it. I thought it was all about random people just typing things such as “I walked my Dog”, I’m eating cereal, or I’m sitting on the toilet! I just didn’t really see the value in it.
One day I was talking to Willie Crawford on Skype and he told me that he was on Twitter. For those of you who don’t know Willie he is an incredible marketer and just a really good guy. I interviewed him for my Work at Home Radio show. If you want to listen to the show you can find it right here -> Work At Home Radio Show
I figured if somebody like Willie, who I have a lot of respect for was using Twitter there must be something to it. So I signed up for an account to see what it was all about … I’m so glad I did!
Since joining Twitter about 2 1/2 months ago I have developed a list of of over 5,000 followers and met a ton of great people. I happen to have a home based business that allows me the luxury of not having to go to a job so I have plenty of time to be on Twitter.
One of the things I like most about Twitter is the real time interactivity of it. I can post something and have a response in seconds. I also like that Twitter give me the ability to build relationships and reach people that I would never have met any other way. I have had some great phone conversations with people on Twitter and even met some of them in person.

I didn’t get it at first either. When I first started, I didn’t have any followers and didn’t know anyone on it. Then one of my blog friends found me and it just took off! I love it for all the reasons everyone up there mentioned, but also because it has more than doubled my stats on my blog!
The really really awesome part about this post? The label. lol. I’m a “cool tweeter!” 
Ease and accessibility. Its no big thang’ to share and spread ideas, thoughts, links, and even some vented up rage that needs to get out!
Twitter is like eavesdropping on the entire world. Someone recently referred to Twitter as the world’s biggest water cooler, and I tend to agree.
The creator of Twitter is a genius in my opinion. Its so clever, firstly because it limits you to 140 characters then because of the way it is structured enabling you to connect with so many people. You bulid up a level of trust and respect and then you can network and market your business.
Twitter personifies what blogging is all about in my opinion
I like the electronic ‘bush telegraph’ element of Twitter, and the immediacy of news breaking, support and idea sharing. Brings the world into a very cosy corner of life.
Jack,
I like Twitter because it allows me to connect with new people that I would have never met otherwise, like you said. I also like the fact that I can read what everyone has to say in short blurbs rather than long-winded posts. If I like what they have to say, or if it sounds intriguing then I will click on the link and check it out.
It has become my first “go to” page when I get online now!
I even wrote a humorous poem about it titled, “It’s Not Your Daughter’s Twitter Anymore”
Have an Outstanding rest of the night (especially if you are reading this a 3:00am because your dog woke you up, lol)

P.S. My wife just laughed because I’m talking about long-winded posts while writing a long-winded comment. LOL. Another reason I like Twitter… for my own protection.
I like the fact that I’m learning more and more about how social networking “works,” and appreciate all the great new resources and friends I’ve made.
