Some Of My Favorite Power Tweets

by admin on March 2, 2010

I’ve been using favorites in the Twitter web app for a while now.   They act as an easy way to bookmark / save tweets for later reference and come in extremely handy.  How many times have you been searching for a tweet that you wanted to reference a couple of days / weeks ago?  :-)

You get my point though.  Here’s some tweets i value and enjoyed:

  • Real influence is not in RTs or followers, but in people remembering you if you’ve not tweeted for a while. @ScepticGeek
    (Everyone likes to get Retweeted but seriously it’s not the end of the world if you don’t + 1)
  • “The Followers Game Is So 2008. Time for New Metrics.” – http://j.mp/c9rPSV @Jesse @LouisGray
    (Indeed, lists have been helpful – what else ohh Tweetrank!?!)
  • TweetRank – Does Twitter Need To Start Penalising Users Who Consistently Break The Rules? http://goo.gl/QYc3
    (
    Pumpers and dumpers?)
  • Ads Drop Dot-Com URLs in Favor of “Facebook Us” http://goo.gl/uHW7@SteveRubel
    (Insightful, still corporate urls are here for now)
  • “Please Retweet”, “Please RT” & “PLZ RT” please STOP!  http://goo.gl/scpB @webaddict
    (I can’t get enough of this one, old time favorite)
  • Cassandra @ Twitter: An Interview with Ryan King http://goo.gl/AoEI
    (Love anything to do with Scaling Twitter)
  • Why Everyone Needs a Twitter Follow Policy http://goo.gl/ktiw@sheamus
    (Ever thought about this, how about being your own filter?)

  • Less Networks.  More Meaning.  http://goo.gl/cYgE @armano

  • Coming soon: the disruptive molecular age of information http://goo.gl/kL7f @scobleizer

  • 10 Types Of People Who Try To Quit Facebook…And Fail — http://bit.ly/bUFHp3
    (
    At this stage i’m the explorer, probably move into the entrepreneur after i get my content strategy right)
  • Here’s what I hate about the iPad http://goo.gl/xAT2
    (Would love to own one first…)
  • Interesting piece / *superb doc. by @karaswisher & @Oneupweb on “Gorillas and Their Search for Real-Time Nectar” http://goo.gl/AzyS
