UPDATE:

According to http://blog.twitter.com/ Twitter is about to release it’s Search (and in my opinion its best function) to the larger Twitter public with a more robust presence on Twitter.  However before they do this they are running test on a “limited set of accounts to get a better sense of how it works for folks before we release the feature completely into the wild. Most people will not see this test, just a small, random subset.”

Great job Twitter, this looks and works great! 

Update 12:00 AM 6 March

This is really cool too, and a great function.  When you do a search it now even identifies the related profiles.  Here you can see my three Twitter accounts: @jerell, @jerellklaver, and @IFollowBack.com  (btw.. you have to check out my new Twitter Application at www.IFollowBack.com ~ It will change the way people build their networks on Twitter, by building Twitter Networks fast the right way and for free)

Twitter Conversation - 10 Reasons

March 5th, 2009 by Jerell | 1 Comment | Filed in Tip of the Day, trends

Lately there has been a trend of some really big people on twitter engaging in massive unfollowings. For me I don’t agree with this as I really believe that the golden rule of Twitter is that you have to engage in the conversation.  This means that in my opinion it is a good idea to more or less have the same ratio of following to followers. My reasons are simple and I want to share them, but as always you should use Twitter as it best fits your needs, how you want to use Twitter, and not how someone should tell you to.

1.    You can’t engage in a conversation if you don’t follow people

2.    I don’t want to hear just myself speak

3.    I can learn more from others

4.    There are a lot more people interesting than me

5.    I’m not an expert in everything

6.    I’m not some self proclaimed Social Media Expert

7.    I’m not into pumping my EGO – (I’m not talking EGO in the Rand sense) but in the modern negative connotations

8.    You have a larger group of friends that you can talk to

9.    You have more opportunities to engage in the conversation

10. It opens up new opportunities and networking results.
