Twitter is like speed dating!!!

by Priyanka

I think Twitter is like speed dating.

You add people because you find something interesting about them and this could be what they mention in a simple sentence near their twitter handle. Then you get to know them through 140 characters. You exchange 140 character messages and then decide if you want to continue to know them on a longer basis.

Just 140 characters are enough and its relatively easy to follow or unfollow. No hard feelings :)

Compared to other social media networking sites, its relatively low involvement and less time investment. If you want people to know more about you or if you want to know more about them, you need to direct them or follow them outside of twitterverse.

Twitter is almost like scratching the surface, and if you spot Gold!!! go after it :) or else part ways and you don’t even need 140 characters for that!!!

Dear Priyanka

Good to see your blog. Neat job!!!

I need a small help and trust you wont’ mind extending a small helping hand to me. I am new to blogging and looking for various options to spread the reach of my blogs. In your blogs, after every post you have a field viz- “share and enjoy” with some icons. Can you pl share with me as to how to get this particular thing on my bloggers posts and what is the significance of same?

Would appreciate all help :)
Thanks
Ekta
