Twitter Tips and Resources - Part 55

Posted on 26 July 2011

This is Part 55 of an ever-growing blog series, with each post 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. ““Pray that I never become your competitor’s secret weapon”” by Scott Gould (@scottgould on twitter) - it’s about twitter bios
2. “15 Things I Have Learned After One Year on Twitter” by Randy Clark (@randyclarktko)
3. “How NOT to Publicize Your Facebook and Twitter Accounts” by Jonathan Richman (@jonmrich)
4. “34 Unique Twitter Content Ideas for Your Community” by Janet Aronica (@janetaronica)
5. “What Not To Post On Twitter: 11 Things Your Tweeps Don’t Need To Know” on “The Huffington Post” (@huffingtonpost) by Catharine Smith (I don’t know her twitter handle)
6. ““ReTweet” or “retweet”? The Grammar of Social Media” by Kerry Jones (@snarkandpepper)
7. “The really, really simple guide to using Twitter” by Robin Brown (@RobinBrown78)
8. “The Worst Twitter Auto-DMs In Human History” by Chris Reimer (@RizzoTees)
9. “The twitter Guide Book - How To, Tips and Instructions” by Pete Cashmore (@Mashable) and the Mashable team
10. “Finding the balance between personal and professional on Twitter” by Mark Schaefer (@markwschaefer)

And a bonus goodie for you:
“How to Measure Your Social Media ROI, Success and Influence” by me, Kay Ross (@kayross) – it’s a list of resources about social media generally, not just twitter

For a list of links to Parts 1-54 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!
