You’re No One if You’re Not on Twitter
This is not only my opinion but it seems to be the theme behind the YouTube posting by Ben Walker. It’s a little tune he wrote to mock everyone’s favorite 140 character micro messaging service. What I found particularly funny was his trip down memory lane when the Internet first became popular and how messaging of all kinds has become a vital function in our lives.
Social networking is all the rage and according to the Internet guru’s, you’re only someone if you have a presence on one of the sites like Twitter, Facebook, MySpace or LinkedIn to name a few. Frankly, I have a Twitter account but don’t take the time to maximize its effectiveness because I don’t “tweet” every day. When I can get a break from answering messages in my 5 different email accounts, I vow to find out the secrets to effective marketing by tweeting micro messages.
So for now, I guess I’m some one because I have a Twitter account but a real nobody because I don’t use it enough……..quite the dilemma isn’t it?
I hope you enjoy the tune incorporating his tongue in cheek humor as much as I did!
Brilliant, Donna. I guess I’m with you nobody pile as I do not ‘tweet’ too often.
Enjoy the journey.

Hi Donna,
Loved it. I’ve got the same dilemma as you, I have an account but obviously don’t use it enough. I try but to be honest, I still don’t get it.
Love your blog,
Tracey
Hi Donna
I love your post…I also love Twitter. Took me a little while to get the hang of it, now I tweet everyday. It’s a brilliant marketing tool and will get you links to your blog / website. Definitely worth taking 5 minutes to tweet…you never know who is following you!

Hi Donna,
great and funny post! This Twitter thing is still a mystery to me as well even with 250+ followers … but hey, let’s follow each other

Donna,
I agree….even though I do tweet on a regular basis, I still don’t get the value of it as a marketing tool. Maybe someday.
Keep up the great work.

Hi Donna,
I am exactly the same because I don’t use my account as much as I should either. There seems to be a lot of us ‘nobodys’ out there who aren’t on Twitter enough! Great blog by the way with some super posts to read, so keep up the postin’ and I’ll check back again!
Best of luck,
Sue.
Hi Donna,
I guess I’m the biggest nobody of them all. I don’t even have a Twitter account. I can’t believe I just admitted to that.
I’ve been lacking in the social media aspect of my business.
I’ll have to get up to speed. Thanks for the great post.
Best regards,
George Nieves
I’m still trying to get my head around twitter … Everyone raves on about it, but it might be just me – I know it’s supposed to keep people updated in bite size chunks, but I’d rather be creating great content for my subscribers – Easy dilemma !
Hi Donna.
I have a Twitter account. I go through phases, every day ages then the total opposite. It’s probably a month since I last posted. I started Masterclass last week. Hit a problem straight away but will sort it.
Regards
Donald
P.S. Have a look at my blog and leave a comment. It’s not every day I go on there either. lol
