Twitter got all the luck that big websites couldn’t get it, maybe because it was the most simple website ever!

sorry Brandon for the typos, I was typing fast from my other laptop, keys are different and my brain is suffering :)

It’s amazing that nobody had heard of it just a few years ago, and even Google itself is only a decade old. My how times move fast!

You’ve got a good point. I guess it would be good to clarify that if your site is conducive to RSS, then it should be on Twitter, in most cases. Thanks!

Hi Brian,

I understand where you are coming from in terms of being on Twitter. But for some companies, existence on Twitter just doesn’t fit,or shall I say “it’s complicated”.

At my day job we have a website with thousands of pages, we sell thousands of technical books and related products to over 140 different industry sectors. So for us, we would need to hire at least 2 – 3 people just to decide what we are going to tweet and who we are going to tweet to. I know tweeting just seems so simple but when you have that many products, it can be very overwhelming.

I think some of us (not me personally) are waiting around thinking that Twitter is just a fad, so it might not be worth our time.

On the other hand as a blogger, I agree with you 100%. Twitter is an essential part of my marketing strategy.

Thanks for the post.

The same is with me, I can’t function without RSS and Google Reader (on my machine I use NetNewsWire). With RSS, the news is always there and it stays there. With Twitter, you must be almost all the time on Twitter to be up-to-date. And that is waste of time.

What I realized, it is better to follow 400 or 500 Twitter users with quality tweets than 10.000 with spamming tweets and with no content.

And congratulations to the new design.
