Natalie-Coleman_Wins Masterchef 2013

Do you use Twitter? Sometimes fun things do happen.

Twitter. Ah twitter. Say it all in a  #hash tag in under a 130 characters. But say what? And say it to whom? I am still not sure what I am suppose to do with twitter.  I feel like a small fish in a very big sea. Sometimes though a fun thing happens, and you realize maybe the world is not so big and vast when it comes to people touching other people.  I love Masterchef Australia, and then I started watching Masterchef UK season 9, and I just finished it last night. It was quite enjoyable.  The cooking was amazing. One of the contestants you could not help but like and root for is a talented young lady named Natalie Coleman. She is a lovely person, humble, hard working, sweet and close to her family. She feeds her Grandpa […]

Do you think twitter is dead?

Is Twitter dying or dead? Why Biz Stone the founder has left the company

Will twitter die? Is twitter dying? What do you think? Who is really using Twitter today?

(Update: Tweetdeck was absorbed by Twitter and they run a different program and interface with it now). Another tool that many people use that is a paid option is Hootsuite, they do offer a limited free program as well. Part of my philosophy about working online […]

Kim Edwards is writing an article for the Independent Book Publishers Association, and she sent me some interview questions. One of the questions was: “How can I set up a strategic system or tweet plan where I am not creating more work for myself?”. This is a great question for me because I just recently started using twitterfeed. This is a tool that has greatly increased my traffic, (doubled it from the day I started using it!), and saved me so much time. If you are using Facebook and twitter and Linkedin and not using this tool, run don’t walk to sign up now. Did I mention it is FREE. I would pay to use this. It does take about 30 minutes to set up correctly. Well at least it took me that long because I felt a little confused […]
