If there's one thing I'm learning with social media is that you can't just rely on traditional notions like how many friends you have or how much you talk. Quality matters, and that's a more challenging one to measure.CB Whittemorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737846177421292411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30346489.post-69375481335801945472009-01-28T16:04:00.000-05:002009-01-28T16:04:00.000-05:00Thanks for including me in your series C.B!

Twitter 'scores' are based on the number of people you follow, @ replies and retweets. <BR/><BR/>I told a friend of mine the other day, that I struggle to follow my 500 'twitter friends' which is the reason why I believe these lists are somewhat irrelevant. <BR/><BR/>When you send a link via twitter e.g. link to your blog post) how many of your twitter followers actually click it? Probably just a fraction...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30346489.post-74563210422822751932009-01-28T13:15:00.000-05:002009-01-28T13:15:00.000-05:00This is a great idea for a series and a thoroughly...This is a great idea for a series and a thoroughly enjoyable read! Look forward to reading more discussions.<BR/><BR/>Lolly, thanks for the shout-out on the "Four I's", appreciate it.<BR/><BR/>You make some great points throughout - I agree that having a social media presence just because you can is not the same as because you need to. Get that wrong and it's simply a waste of your resources (and time is most definitely money).<BR/><BR/>And these Twitter lists are definitely a pain - recommend, yes, but influential? Debatable. ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
