Tweet This

With the exception of the clever Twitter post a while back from Carina, we’ve pretty much left the Twitter topic alone. Well, I’m going to make the first crack at it. The ladies here at Yaybia all have Twitter accounts and have been testing it out with our friends. We’ve found that it’s a great place for us to connect with our current friends, share inside jokes, and waste time in general. But as far as self promo, networking, and fostering lasting relationships goes? SKIP IT. Now, even if we so desired to become fully enthralled with this supposed social media revolution that is Twitter, we couldn’t because it’s broken all the time! I took a marketing strategy class this past semester and I actually took a handful of insights away from that dreadful Wednesday night class. If you have a product/service/social network, a whatever! and it has the potential (at least you would hope so) to be so widely adopted that Google is going to snatch you up, be ready for it! At least once a day I find Twitter to be experiencing technical difficulties and I’ve had it this time. Hey Twitter, before you go out to try and change the world and monetize microblogging, why don’t you get your development down first. I like things that work, so I’m taking up residence at Brightkite instead. Libby and I have a few beta invites left and we'd love to share. Get 'em while they're hot.
