Twitter Tips and Resources – Part 72

Posted on 10 October 2012

This is Part 72 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. “19 Twitter Tips for Newbies (or Helpful Reminders for Not-So-Newbies)” by Carla Young (@CarlaYoung on twitter)
2. “Buying Twitter Followers? Beware StatusPeople, The Service That Exposes Social Media’s Black Market” by Amber Mac (@ambermac)
3. “The Once Secret World of Buying Twitter Followers” by Lorenzo Gonzalez (@belizeadventure)

For a list of links to Parts 1-71 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!
