Twitter Update

Having just finished writing the follow up to my previous post on Twitter Do you Tweet my computer crashed. It was insightful and funny too. I don't have time to do it again so here are some of the highlights:

- John was right - I am willing to accept that Twitter is quite engaging / addictive
- As long as companies are honest and provide human responses then it can be a successful strategy
- Automated responses such as BigPonds original foray will create a major backlash
- Following celebrities makes you feel like you are having a conversation with them (along with 200,000 others)
- Some people take it too seriously
- You're only as good as your last tweet
- To get lots of followers you should be funny, famous or informative (ideally, all 3)
- Everyone follows Stephen Fry, Lance Armstrong or Britney
