You’ve heard of Twitter chats and you even know how to participate in them (maybe. If not, read this post where we explain it ALL), but where can you find Twitter chats?
Lucky for you, there’s a place that keeps track of Twitter chats, so you’ll never miss another chance to connect.
And all you have to do is follow its Twitter and pay attention!
We're kicking off our upcoming June Social Media Marketing Boot Camp session with a special keynote presentation by Ella Chick (left), the digital producer at Anderson Cooper 360°. She'll discuss how the network uses social media for breaking news and leverages social media to draw attention to organizations and causes. Learn more about our program and register here.
Twitter rolled out two-step verification yesterday to the delight of those worried about being hacked – and to the annoyance of one of the lords of the Internet, Kim Dotcom.
You see, sir Dotcom claims to have patented this process many years ago – and it seems he has proof.
But don’t worry Twitter (and Google and anyone else authenticating logons this way), all the man wants is a little help with his legal fees and to have his account verified by Twitter!
There are few rules one must follow to stay in Twitter’s good graces and they mostly revolve around spam (don’t do it). Beyond that, anything goes really. You can tweet whatever you want – it’s a freedom of speech wasteland – just DON’T share someone’s personal information without their permission.
Unless you’re Jose Canseco, that is. He can share the name and photo of his alleged rape victim with impunity.
There is lots of talk these days about acquiring fans, building community and driving two-way conversations, but significantly less is written about how these things correlate to the bottom line.
This is certainly true in the world of pro sports. Is social media more significant for driving revenue through ticket sales or merchandise? What do sponsorship deals on Twitter and Facebook look like?
Here’s what might be the answer to Twitter #Music’s tumble out of the app store’s top 10 since its debut in April: TechCrunch has confirmed that Twitter has amped up the music service with charts.
Today’s most predictable news: Twitter has finally rolled out two-step authentication.
After another recent round of high-profile hacks, apparently Twitter saw the light. And by “light,” I mean the dead-obvious value of offering users a two-step secure login that’s been available on Google, Facebook, and more platforms for months now.
In the past few months, Twitter has introduced a range of new Twitter cards to enhance its in-stream experience.
As images have taken center stage on social networks, Twitter has rolled out app cards, product cards and gallery cards to its users.
This week, Twitter took things one step further with the introduction of Lead Generation Cards.
No question, social media has transformed the telecommunications industry.
The days of “Can you hear me now?” are over, and the telecom giants – Sprint, Verizon, Comcast, Bell – know they need to be proactive in cultivating customers via social media.
Unsurprisingly, there’s a bit of a love/hate relationship between digital media and telecom.
Yesterday, I wrote this article about Twitter. Nothing particularly unusual about that, as I’ve been writing about Twitter now on a near-daily basis for more than four years.
But this event did represent a benchmark of sorts, as that post was the two thousandth article that I have written and published about Twitter since February 19, 2009. Two thousand is quite a number. I think I’ve probably written more articles about Twitter than anybody else, like, ever.
So what have I learned in that time?
Social sharing drives eCommerce sales, but all shares are not created equally.
Email still leads the way, and by some distance, with the average email share especially valuable as it’s almost always a one-to-one forward (from one friend directly to another), and leads to an average dollar conversation rate of eight times that of Facebook, and more than ten times that of Twitter.
