Twitter Tips and Resources – Part 36

Posted on 15 January 2011

This is Part 36 of an ever-growing series of blog posts, each one featuring links to 10 useful, funny and/or provocative articles/lists/blog posts/videos/sites I’ve come across about how to use twitter more effectively (and how NOT to use it).

Here are the latest 10:

1. “Are your personal tweets hurting your company’s brand?” by Amber Avines (@wordsdonewrite on twitter)
2. “Annoying Habits in Social Media” by Kristy Bolsinger (@kristy)
3. “A Quick (& Fun) Guide To Twitter Lingo” by Farida Harianawala (@farida_h)
4. “5 key tips to market your event via Twitter” by Denise Quashie (@DQtweets)
5. “Does every complaint matter on Twitter? @SouthwestAir says ‘yes!’” by Matt Wilson (sorry, I’m not sure what his twitter name is, but he’s a contributor to @FakeAPStylebook)
6. “Do you have #Hashtagitis?” by Amber Avines (@wordsdonewrite)
7. “Explaining Twitter to Those Who Don’t Get It” by Diana Adams (@adamsconsulting)
8. “Is it OK to fake your tweets?” by Mark Schaefer (@markwschaefer)
9. “What Is A “Fake” Retweet? What Can You Do About It?” by Dave Larson (@TweetSmarter)
10. “The crucial differences between Facebook and Twitter” by Lauren Friedman (@Lauren_Hannah)

For a list of links to Parts 1-35 in this series (which was born on May 19, 2009), see the Twitter category on this blog.

Would you like to recommend any other good twitter resources? I certainly don’t list EVERY article about twitter that I see – I might recommend an article that I disagree with, if I think it contributes something useful to the debate, but I won’t recommend an article that I think is badly written.

Happy tweeting!
