Just a Twitter Away

In looking to ways to increase my traffic, I am looking to my friends and social networking to help me out. I decided to start Twittering.

Their site is riddled with code problems, but it is a pretty cool service. I like my blog because it gives me an opportunity to talk about what I am thinking. I have come to like Twitter because it gives me a change to talk about what I am doing. Moreover, it gives me a chance to follow people and know what they are doing right now.

There are many different opinions on how to use Twitter in business. Justin Foster had a post today on what he calls "Twitter Magic." It was at his recommendation that I sign up.

One thing that Justin suggests is that a company doesn't need a Twitter strategy. He is referring to the idea that as a company, we don't want to have a strategy about how to connect with people... we should just connect.

Last week, Misty Khan posted at Arrow Tips her thought on a Twitter strategy.

For the most part, I am inclined to agree that personally, you should have a strategy. In my opinion, her strategy is more about being a good conversationalist than about Twitter. If you want, follow me by clicking on my Twitter badge on the right. If you are interesting to me, I'll follow you back.
