Philosophical wonder woman

Want to market yourself, company, brand, products, services ______ (whatever) on Twitter and not sure how? Keep hearing all this buzz about Twitter and don't get why you should care? You should care because as far as I can tell, Twitter is insanely effective FREE advertising & networking which can lead to colleague relationships you never expected. I've won give-a-ways on twitter, gotten web design advice, made friends, even interacted with celebrities. It's freakin awesome even if you're not using it for business. However, if you don't understand how to jump into twitter... Set up an account and never use it, obviously it won't do you any good. I suggest setting up your profile on the web but after that there are many apps for your phone to interface with Twitter (which can be more convenient for some than using the website). I like the free iPhone app Twitter offers for the most part. Here are the simple steps to making Twitter work for you. 1. Sign ...

I've decided I want to monetize my blog but I want to choose who I advertise on my site. So I'm going to start right now advertising my favorite new bellydance magazine based out of Sedona, AZ: Shimmy in the Spirit of Bellydance . Holly Luky has created a wonderful, positive forum for sharing the love of the dance and fostering a spirit of COMMUNITY not competition. The articles range from fitness, to positive body image, to dance styles and techniques and so much more.

I'd also like to advertise costume and dancewear vendors since let's face it, we need something to dance in! I really enjoy Dance Distributors for general dancewear and have a large number of bellydance vendor links on my website shimmygoddess.com So if you are a dance teacher, performer or vendor, please contact me if y...

So Oprah joins twitter and millions of people sign up for an account. Really she was just acting on the hype she heard and doesn't understand it any better than her viewers. People hear about Twitter, join it and then forget about it because they don't understand it. It's not your Facebook status (though you CAN use it that way, but you're really limiting yourself). I think the whole "what are you doing" line on the homepage is misleading to newbies. Twitter is networking with anyone about anything you want, in real time. Today, I read an article by a developer in Argentina, replied to his tweet and within seconds we are having a really intriguing dialogue about Google. I have WAY too many interests... First of all I follow anyone trend-setting in the technology world - I also follow anyone that tweets subjects relevant to my work. I've also discovered awesome kindred spirits in terms of sci fi, belly dance, Joss Whedon, music and oh so much more. Can...
