I really have an addictive personality and I do spend way to much time on the computer and it seems like every day I come across another social network to be addicted to. I just started to get hot and heavy into twitter which is another social network platform that I dismissed as silly months ago when I first looked into it. I seem to really get into something when there is a real buzz surrounding a product or website and now seems the time that the twitter buzz has exploded.

Some great sites I have come across so far that will help you with twitter tools and plugins you can utilize can be found here at twitter chat a blog by Peggy Butler. Although I am fairly new to the world of twitter here are a few plugins I have installed TwitMe this will turn your blog posts into urls and post them on your twitter. Another plugin which you can see here on this blog is Twitter Friends which shows a picture of your recent follower’s comments and is a good way to attract followers. I even added twitter to my facebook who has a twitter application

I am still learning my way around twitter but if I find any new cool tools I will let ya know or if you know of any please let me know here. So tell me what your favorite twitter tool is? Oh yes don’t forget to follow me here Danny in Tampa

Some new things I learned being a newbie with twitter, RT stands for retweet which means to repost someone elses tweet that you find interesting, you would write RT @ username then copy their tweet.

Here are some tricks on how to get more twitter followers

    I’m yet to fully maximize the power of Twitter but it’s certainly a powerful tool for social network and promotion.

    Thanks for heads up on those tools. Some of them are really foreign to me.

    @ Blogs You need to jump on the twitter bandwagon there is plenty of room home to see you there.

    Great post! My wife @Truthoughts and I @OutsideMyBrain LOL - just installed TweetDeck today available at TweetDeck(dot)com and it’s a great tool.

    What I like best about it is that it captures every mention of your user name even if it doesn’t begin the Tweet. We found that several people had mentioned us in their Tweets, but we never new it before.

    Also, if you’d like a little humor, I wrote a funny article titled, “It’s Not Your Daughter’s Twitter Anymore”. Check it out!

    See you in Twitterville!

    been doing twitter for a while now and I still cant seem to get how to use it to generate business or traffic but I still keep going…

  17. Chad from Myrtle Beach Homes on February 18th, 2009 2:09 pm

    Well …hmmm I’m still not convinced yet to setup my twitter account only because of the latest issue with facebook - I mean I still just don’t want to trust these guys with my content. I guess I’ll just have to read their TOS again now and maybe pull the trigger to do this…I hate fads so much - ugh.

    Twitter is becoming more and more popular everyday, it seems. I have been resisting this new Twitter movement but I have a feeling I’m going to have to join in pretty soon. People are just raving about it and I’m going to have to see what all the fuss is about. Maybe I’ll see you there =]

    Great example, while I’m not an addict, I’ve has similar experiences watching SuperBowl commercials, the Inauguration and other events while on Twitter and yes, TweetDeck is an invaluable tool. IMO Twitter would be useless w/out TweetDeck.

  20. Anthony Toma on May 20th, 2009 6:45 pm

    Im new to twitter, but it seems like Im spending more and more time on it everyday.

  21. Stacey from st louis brazilian jiu jitsu on June 7th, 2009 12:25 pm

    I’m also new to twitter myself. But, I’m liking every minute I stay with it. And also,you’d be able to find a lot of people. I really want to learn more about it. Especially which app works well with what. Hope you can help. Thanks!

    Twitter is not only addictive, it can be one hell of a marketing tool as well!
