If you want to use any of this material contact me and there is a very good chance I will say YES.
However, if you just cut and paste into your own blog or whatever and pass it off as your own then there's a very good chance I will find out. Don't fall into the trap of thinking the internet is so vast and expanding so fast (note the fancy internal rhyme)] that no one will know.
Ok, I’ll see ya over there.
Oh goody!
Yeah yeah I know I SHOULD get myself on Twitter… I keep putting it off! This is a very convincing post though. I will do it, one day, and probably fairly soon.
Let me know when you do and I’ll tweet the news – you have so many friends on it already
Thanks for reposting this, Bridget. I’ve been ambivalent about the benefits of using Twitter, mainly because it just seems so overwhelming in comparison to Facebook, but the benefits you’ve outlined have me rethinking. I just need to organize myself and make better use of time while I am on Twitter.
Applications like buffer post on your behalf so you can make better use of your time (and it allows you to tweet when you are asleep and the other side of the world is awake). I like it, but yes, it is easy to waste time and that’s something to be wary of from the start. But I guess that’s true for all social media.
met some lovely people via Twitter
That’s a bonus when it happens but yes, most people are nice and alarmingly witty…
Thanks, I know you’re right, and you’ve helped me work out why I’ve got the darned account. I needed to be reminded why I set the thing up in the first place. It must be time to dust it off and get tweeting again.
I was like that for ages but now I use it regularly. Do say hi if you are going back in the saddle and I’ll give you a shout-out (horrible phrase) to other like-mided tweeters
