While perusing on Twitter, I came across a tweet that had the following Google search string in it:
site:twitter.com bio location tx 100…1000000 followers -400
Unfortunately, I don’t remember who posted it, if you happen to catch this post, please let me know so I can give you proper credit.  What that search string does, is it tells you all of the twitter users in Texas that have more than 100 followers.
The string is for an advanced search on Google. Most people never use the advanced search functionality, but every so often, …

If you’ve spent any time on twitter, you may have noticed people closing tweets with a text like this:
#3turnoffwords
or
#followfriday
or
#tcc
You may wondering, what do those mean?
Well, those are called hashtags, and essentially they are topics that people are talking about.  In the current version of twitter, the application is kind enough to show you in the sidebar what the most popular hashtags are at any given moment.

I’ve been working a lot on my twitter presence. As such, I’ve discovered that there are some things that are more likely than other to get me to unfollow you. In talking to other tweeple (people on twitter) I discovered that a lot of us share these same guidelines.
Without further ado, here are my 5 things:
1. Marketing bot.

At work, we’re looking to revamp our current CMS. With this in mind, I’ve been testing a couple of different platforms.  CMS, for the record, stands for Content Management Solution.  We need to test several different platforms to be sure that we pick the best of the best.
I, of course, have an opinion as to what the best of the best is, but I digress.
We started testing something called “Mojo Portal.” I’d never heard of it, and none of my co-workers had ever heard of it either. We found out …

On twitter, the criteria or guidelines to use for choosing somebody to follow are to a certain degree, something very personal. Ultimately you decide what is worth your time to follow or to read up on.
If you don’t know where to start, I can give you a few suggestions.

Something you can do, is to do a search for a things that interest you using twitter search. You can start your search by visiting search.twitter.com and do a search in there for a subject that you are interested in.For example, if …

If you’ve turned on your TV in that last few months or so, you’ve probably heard about something called Twitter. News reporters on TV, news reporters in print, radio personalities etc. all are talking about something called “Twitter.” You may have asked yourself at some point recently:
“What the heck is Twitter?”
In a nutshell, Twitter is a micro-blogging website or service. What you do when you micro blog, is that you post a short message or blog post to your account. Twitter limits you to 140 characters or less, …

Believe it or not, there are actually times when you should not tweet.  I know, it seems really hard to believe, but there really are times when you should pay attention to what’s going in, instead of paying attention to the twitter feed.
Actually, let me rephrase that, there are times when updating your feed, as well as catching up on what’s going on in the feed can wait.  With today being the first day of SXSWi and the city of Austin crawling with geeks and other people in town for …
