My concern about linking various social media sites is that anyone I know who is linked to more than one of them is likely to see the same message multiple times, just on different social media, and I don't want to annoy people because of it. I do tweet some of my blogs or post them to Facebook/Google + but I decide which ones to share (and where) rather than have them all automatically post to every site.<br />You're right about there being useful articles among the tweets, it's just a question of being able to find them among the mass. What I don't understand is how the people who tweet every hour or so (often more) have time to do it!<br />Yesterday I decided that from today, writing must come first and then social media - just recently it has been trending the other way! <br /><br /><br />Mel Parishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198036217758715274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121713786115341773.post-39409655542878509092013-06-30T14:32:30.378-04:002013-06-30T14:32:30.378-04:00Yes. I haven't quite gotten the hang of Twitte...Yes. I haven't quite gotten the hang of Twitter either. I first tried twitter a couple of years ago and found I hated it. It was TMI, literally. Tons of post and no time to read them all. <br /><br />I've joined on my author page and tried to interact a bit, but I find the rolling thread a bit hard to follow. However, I have found tweets about some useful articles. <br /><br />I tend to use Facebook more often, so I set it so my Facebook posts appear in my twitter feed. But, doing it this way doesn't let you really interact on twitter, so I'm not sure how useful it is. Doing it that way will give you a twitter presence, but you have to actually check twitter to find out if people have reacted to any tweets, and then you have to respond to them via Twitter.<br /><br />I think the real question you have to ask is whether you want to have a Twitter presence or participate in Twitter. Linking the tweets to a media you already use will give you a presence. But, you won't really participate. And there may be other sites out there that let you update your various social media through one screen (connecting all the accounts). <br /><br />Good luck with your social media stuff.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00368427588410554195noreply@blogger.com
