Found a very helpful article, from Small Biz Survival, entitled, "Filtering Twitter: Going from mostly noise to all conversation." Yes please! It gives great ideas of using Tweetdeck and Hootsuite and filter settings to reduce the amount of NOISE we all see in Twitter all the time: automatic tweets and thank yous, broadcast announcements, and cross-posts from Facebook. It can get hard to find the good things from all the weight of STUFF that pours out every day.

Thanks to : bnet.com
Ryan Holmes, the CEO of Vancouver-based HootSuite, a popular social media dashboard for groups, who offered five tips for tweeting entrepreneurs.

What my clients ask me about Social Media
With most of my clients, we do a “101” of Social Media at some point in the first few months of working together. Over the last few years I have really come to understand what the top guidelines are, and would love to share them with you.
Here are the main things to remember:
BE PERSONAL. It is about interacting on a personal level with the people you come in contact with online. Big companies are still not doing this well, but are improving. Consumers do not like ads anymore, and are tired of the interpersonal quality Read more [...]
TweetadderThursday, July 1st, 2010
What a great social media tool! Just the other day one of my clients was doing some work on Twitter, following people, and told me she was dying of boredom. I laughed and told her about Tweetadder. It is a lovely little piece of software that you can set up to automatically follow people with similar interests, that may be your market, or people that are following other people in your field. I have used it for two or three clients now, and it builds followers exceptionally fast, and with little work.
I have told so many people about it perhaps I should set up an affiliate relationship with Read more [...]
