The power of Twitter!

It took me a long time to understand Twitter! Why would anyone want to know why Johnny was at the bus stop eating a jam sandwich? I just didn't get it! But am I glad I do now. Wow ! I have been building up my contacts and really getting my head round how powerful it is. Then Imagine my great delight when @purpledognet made me #purplebiz business of the day last Tuesday. What a good job I was planning to spend most of the day at home. The tweets came in constantly - fast and furious. I had more than an extra 100 followers by the end of the day and many more in the week following. Most of these are good quality connections. I have already had some very useful phone conversations for business exchange with some of those new followers. I am excited about moving those opportunities forward. I am soooooo glad I got my head round twitter and would urge others who are in business to start using it. It would be very silly not to :)
