Wake Me Up When I Have Something to Twitter
Are you Twittering or Plurking? I’m not really doing either. It’s not that I don’t think the technology is cool. I just don’t know who needs to know my activities, every minute of the day.
Twitter was great for the Obama campaign. Subscribers knew where he was that day and where they could see him speak. Cool.
In reality, there isn’t much difference between Plurk and Twitter/ Plurk takes the Twitter idea of constant, short updates and builds on it with better visual elements and lots and lots of features.
But you still need to like the concept. I’m not there yet. Do you really need to know that I just bought pizza for my kid, ate a slice (with red pepper) and now need a chocolate fix.
Zzzz.
I just don’t think I’m exciting enough to Plurk or Twitter. Are you?

It's amazing what people will tweet about. The arrogance and narcissism is incredible.

There is a whole world of credit union professionals and volunteers twittering. It is amazing and allows for instant feedback. Truly it is a revolutionary tool. There is a recent PR article that says if you are speaking at a conference and not a twitter member it is more than likely that the audience is twittering about you while you are on stage.
