Thanks for following me!

Hey, you…thanks for following me. I appreciate your interest and hope you find my updates interesting and beneficial.

Twitter Followers

Just a few notes about how I use Twitter:

  • SPECIFIC TOPICS. My main focuses are Social Marketing and Social Good. I also twitter about local events, graphic design, and people I think are doing great things to give back. Sometimes you’ll see a flurry of posts from an event. Don’t unfollow, it’s only for a day or so.
  • LIMITED CONVERSATION. There’s too much noise in the world, so I only use Twitter to post things others might find valuable. This means I keep conversation to a minimum, and I reply using Direct Messages. If I think my reply might benefit others, I’ll use an @reply.
  • A FEW POSTS A WEEK. Between my day job, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and others, I’m not able to post as often as others. So don’t be surprised if you only hear from me every few days. A guy’s gotta work…
  • NO BOTS. No auto-follows, no automated thank yous, just me.
  • “WHY AREN’T YOU FOLLOWING ME BACK?” I hope that you get value out of my Twitter feed, but be aware that Twitter loses value for me when I follow too many people. So I am very stingy with my follow-backs at the moment. Don’t be offended. And if you’re retweeting everyone, or primarily sending out inspirational quotes, or your stream is mostly replies, that may be great for you but just adds noise. I try to respect everyone’s attention by only posting valuable tweets. I look for the same.

FriendFeed Followers

FF aggregates ALL of my online activity so it may be a bit much, particularly my Blip.fm music posts. If you’re looking just for business and marketing commentary, following me on Twitter would probably be best.

Thanks again – stick around and explore my site!
