10 thoughts on “Twittering”

  1. Is important to reform health care as indicate findrxonline appropriate and capable people should take a position as important as this, remember that previous governments failed to put disabled people who can solve the health problems that are in this country.

  2. Maggie, you probably read tons of great articles or reports that you don’t have time to write a full blog post about but think we should read. If you did nothing on twitter but forward links to those articles, you’d be a smashing success.
    If you interspersed it with some quick wit about beltway idiocy on healthcare, that would be a bonus.

  3. Here’s my advice: Twitter is addictive, so BEWARE! Before you know it you’ll be spending hours on end on it.

  4. Don’t forget your hashtags! #hcr will show up for those interested in health care reform

  7. Just kidding!
    I Twitter from the desktop, following more than I tweet. It’s better than the aggregator for keeping current to the minute, but if you follow too many people the information flow has the velocity of a fire hose. The twitterverse is a maelstrom of information and an individual follower is in a canoe.
    Watch out for hashtags (#)and @ signs.
    Pay little attention to “trends” in the sidebar. Those you follow will keep you informed.
    Twitter is in bad need of more quality and less quantity. I will trade one good tweet with a link any day for a hundred nutty opinions with no links.
    And if you don’t already know, get familiar with bit.ly or whatever url abbreviator you like.
    Seeking quality in the Twitterverse is like trying to discuss Dostoevsky with a random collection of strangers from the sidewalk of Times Square on New Years Eve.

  8. Hi Maggie – Disease Management Care Blog here. I ‘tweet’ a link to each new blog posting, essentially notifying followers each time there is a new post. To compress the link and save tweet space for your important prose, you need to use a “URL shortener.”
    I’d suggest that you break up your regular posts into back to back to back serial tweets, but would probably crash the Twitter
    server and end the internet as we know it. 😉
