I’ve been contemplating getting a Twitter account. Normally I resist issues like Twitter as a result of I don’t like to leap on bandwagons and I’m undoubtedly proof against the concept that everybody needs to listen to my 140 character ideas each 10 minutes as a result of I don’t need to hear theirs. In order that’s my first thought. My second thought is that I’m an enormous fats hypocrite as a result of I counsel the shoppers at my firm to reap the benefits of social media (Twitter, Fb, MySpace, and many others.) to market and promote no matter it’s they should market and promote. Normally, I dodge my very own hypocrisy by saying that I don’t have something to advertise business-wise and would due to this fact solely be utilizing these websites to market myself and that’s simply egotistical. Normally that suffices, however now (or somewhat since November) I’ve had this weblog that I’m changing into increasingly happy with as a result of, nicely, I believe I’m somewhat intelligent, and I would like extra folks to learn it and provides me suggestions even when it’s not good (please please please let it’s good….) and although I’ve written loads of blogs they’ve all the time been for shoppers or my firm and this one is simply mine and no one tells me what I can and might’t write about and it simply means extra. So we’re proper again to getting a Twitter account, which, if I haven’t been deceptive my shoppers, ought to generate extra visitors to this weblog. Silly hypocrisy wanting me within the face.
So, I assume the query is, do I forsake my earlier “I don’t Twitter as a result of I’m not ridiculous” angle and get an account so possibly greater than 25 folks will learn this weblog? Or do I stick with my condescending methods and simply watch for the natural search visitors to start out pouring in? (As a result of I’m positive folks search issues like “St. Valentine the Elusive” and “Are We Nonetheless Associates If I’m Not on Fb” and the “The Chewing Gum Terror” on Google) Fairly the dilemma as I’m very connected to my “I’m not ridiculous angle”.
I imply is Twitter price it? Social Media says sure. Social Media Outlined says no. I hate it after they combat. Additionally, I hate it once I ask a query and there are like 7 completely different solutions. And by 7 I imply there are 2. Both sure or no, however I’ve assist for each of these solutions and now my head hurts excited about it. Thanks rather a lot Twitter. Thanks for not being both clearly price it or clearly not, and thanks for making me really feel like a hypocrite with a headache. I’m going to categorize this put up below struggles- admittedly this can be a small battle nevertheless it’s my weblog and I’ll do what I would like. So there.
Additionally I nonetheless don’t know what I’m going to do about Twitter.
I do know I’m consuming Mexican meals tonight and I do know that my Mother is now studying this weblog (and possibly questioning my sanity), so there are two wins I’ve as we speak. Nicely achieved , nicely achieved.
