How to Microblog your Blogpost : Hello to my Twitter pals!

 How to Microblog your Blog Post

Social media is built around tweets, Youtube, texts, Instys, Pinterest and to some extent, Stumbleupon.
Your blog post gives you the freedom of more words and images, infografics etc. Or does it?
Human attention span lasts for 30 minutes on a topic that they care about. Your blogpost, along with mine is never a priority.
If you live with teenagers, you know that only 3 things will make them care: Food, shelter and the iOS/ #android.

This is your chance to capitalize on 10 items or less and 140 characters or less culture. BTW, INBD tho, but FB is not very #fetch ( a nod to #meangirls ). After five years on it, TISNF, but who cares.
All we want to do is selfies and tweet our shopping. In a poor economy, nothing makes your look  er.. I am lost for adjectives and adverb-eage.
 Microblog is anything from Twitter to Stubleupon.

Social media etiquette for  microblogging  your work:

I have many people reading my posts and some of you are wonderful. Thank you so much for your support. Please tweet me if you want to featured on my blog!

• Dont be a Twitter troll.
• Dont flood the twitter space with offensive images.
• Keep pics of Lingerie to your DMs, with permission.
• Dont tag anything without formal permission, regardless of the user's settings.
• ( If I take the pic and tag your id with it, would you be happy?)
• If you did do that, delete, apologize sincerely, admit to the pettiness behind it and move on.

Last I checked people have lost millions over awful remarks.
Twitter pals are very  important, but beware the tweeter who has a following of  40K without being a subject matter expert or a media person or the like. These tweeps collect followers. After 200 followers, what schedule are  you  following to pay individual attention? Does this mean that you don't work?

 Individual attention, followed by regular group tweet acknowledging some of your good pals is the currency for a meaningful following.

The power of the Retweet, re-pin and like 

Not to mention the fave on twitter!
Yes RT is awesome, but sometime I need a "verytrue " or "Trudat" button .
A retweet is the laziest form of endorsement. Also the most ambiguous. If you are re-tweeting my '???" and were not a part of the original convo, please modify your tweet. What do you mean by a retweet of my ???. All I seek is a clear explanation for this kind of behavior!
I dont know you from Jack, so your tweets are everything. You could be a 21 yr old with an Angrybird obsesh, which is loved by pets too BTW, or a 300lb trucker who always mistypes that as thst. It happens a lot, but when you type" besutiful" 67 times in a 1 week window, I am beginning to think that it is a word in a foreign dictionary.
FYI, there are faves, RT and MT. MTs are modified tweets where you add your own words, but acknowledge that you are modifying, using via and + or "" for the body of the main tweet.

If you are nice, leave comments telling me how James Thurber my writing is, I will show you some real drunken tweeting adventures.

Misleading Titter stats: Saudis tweet a lot, Some countries have banned Twitter, so what is the likely hood of your gaining visibility by tweeting to a specific audience?  What group will get your post the highest visibility via RTs? Sadly, the 20 yr old.  The  20 something across  the world loves telling us about the "haps". My multivariate analyses show that at any given time, they are also less involved in #socialchange #socialgood, not so LOL!

How to navigate misleading statistics in Social Media: Example

This something I have come across recently:

Google+ has more than 25 million users now.
Google+ was the only social network to reach 10 million users in about a fortnight (Twitter took 780 days and Facebook 852 days)

Googleplus vs Facebook vs Twiiter

Using Google plus and belonging on six different social media is the minimum you could do to gain visibility.
Please be very careful when interpreting the above sentences though.
Facebook took that long a time, of 852 days as the only product it was offering.
Facebook happened after Google.






Facebook offered something very simple: Meet here, look for friends, share photos and friends.
It was not a search engine to begin with. A search engine has an algorithm for string searches and can analyze varied kinds of data.
It has access to every kind of information out there. If its online, a search engine will fetch it.
Facebook requires registration and user activity, and still it had that many users.

You can search for people, and that is a subset of what a search engine deals with.

Twitter can be thought of as a subset of Facebook.
Everyone likes to communicate on FB, but fewer like to provide updates.

Twitter had Google and Facebook.

Then came Google plus. To you it looks like an Social media outlet, something that was started from scratch.
It had the "prior art", RESOURCES and the added advantage of Google, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and Pinterest.
Facebook and Twitter were started by young people who felt that teh Social Media outlets available left lot to be desired fro young people.

Google Plus had an array of engineering departments and teh wealth and resources of a Thinktank already inplace given
the models of Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest
By that count, it should have had 50 million in the first 20 days, butthen again whose counting?
All I ask is that we use the same yardstick, level the playing field and remove the home turf advantage.
Google users by then had a Facebook and Twitter following. Its easier to 'port' your contacts from LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter to Googleplus.

Please don't forget that by this time, 99% of phone have built-in cameras, essential for the teen mafia who need to Insty a selfie more frequently than a cat washing itself.

Why did your buddy's blog go viral? Yours...

Over a cuppa, you told someone about your passion and said that they ought to blog .
A few weeks later there is a party at his house for 1200 pageviews per day for a week.
Your mom was invited.

You have had 200 pageviews for the past 8 days.
Your boss reads your friend's blog, gives you more work.
Hows that feel?

I told you about using Twitter, FB, Pinterest, Stumbleupon while we were waiting for the L train.
You were busy with your texting. Not one text should be w/o a link to your blog, if it is to your pals.
It can be done.

Why??
If you have to ask, I am deeply disappointed in your behavior.
YOU went to the airport at 1 a.m. to pick up your pals, slept on the floor and then watched 2 dozen donuts disappear.
THAT'S WHY!!

Remember Dave?
He is your high school bud and he invited himself to your place, hit on your friend etc?
THATS WHYY!!

I could go on.

Moral of the story: You are Leonard Hoffstatdter and you put up with the Sheldon Coopers and Kripkes of the world.
Use Social Media.
Use all you have to promote your blog.

You suggested the sink/blog and now you watch from the outside?
Not fair.
