Page 11: Valencia wwbic

Lay of the Land

• Step 3: Lingo:• @ a public note to one person specifically• RT Re-tweeting someone else's tweet• DM Direct Message (private message to that person only)• # Hashtag for searches/indexing• Lists

Shortened URLs

• Twitter only allows 140 characters• Use less than that, to help others Re-Tweet you without editing you• Tweetdeck and other clients automatically shorten URLs.

• So this: http:// http://www.google.com/search?q=techcrunch+number+of+people+on+twitter&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

• Turns into this: http://bit.ly/uzMXI

• Shortened URLs are also automatically hyper-linked (clickable) so others don't need to copy/paste the URL into a separate browser to launch the site.

Best Practices

• Step 4: Etiquetteo Do not simply feed your blog/website updateso Don't set up auto-follow DMs. Try as much as possible to look at the

profile of the person that followed you, and if they meet your criteria go ahead and follow back

o Indicate what a link is: Great info on ROI: (video) [insert shortened URL]

o Thank people for Re-tweets. Can be individually or several within one Tweet

o Forget anonymity. People have sophisticated search tools, you don't have to omit a name or brand for a Tweet to be linked to a thread about them (positive and negative)

Go!

• Step 5: Interact!• Ask/answer questions (even if not directed to you, these are public

exchanges)• Guest blog• Meet/talk with/connect IRL

• Finally: Remember that Google indexes tweets, and everything you update remains in the public domain.
