Twitter Is My Virtual Birdfeeder

I don’t know how many times I have posted about Twitter on this blog. You can search our twitter label and read all of those posts and it will let you see the evolution of this social media tool and our/my approach to it. It is kind of interesting, but today I want to talk about how Twitter is my virtual birdfeeder.

This morning I read a very simple Tweet from @lizstrauss How to change your Facebook Page’s Category. See it explained here.

This caught my interest and I quickly clicked on the link and realized that by “category” this news was about business Facebook pages. And that meant that I needed to really dig into this news. I tweeted back to Liz:

“thank you. I luv twitter 4 items like this. I’m like a dove sitting below a birdfeeder waitin 4 seed droppings.”

From Liz’s Tweet I went over to my personal Facebook page and saw an item from BlogWorld “Facebook Pages Get a Facelift.”  If you have a business Facebook page I hope you will take the time to read this post, Nikki Katz did a great job of summarizing this Facebook news.

In closing I would like to share a photo that I took today (from inside my house looking through a window). You can see our new bird feeder hanging from one of our Palo Verde trees. If you look closely you will see the small colorful wild birds taking seeds from the feeder, but just below you will see the doves and a squirrel enjoying the extra seeds that have fallen to the ground. It is a wonderful symbiotic relationship, not unlike what I enjoy with my Twitter friends.

I’d love to hear what you think about feeding the birds.  How often do you learn helpful hints from simple little tweets?

De eerste keer dat ik een nieuw online casino opende, voelde het alsof ik een onbekende stad binnenliep: lichten, geluiden en vele zijstraatjes die allemaal om aandacht vroegen. In plaats van verdwalen concentreerde ik me op hoe de ervaring werd georganiseerd: duidelijke labels, zichtbare hulplijnen en een rustige volgorde van keuzes maakten het ontdekken prettig…

Navigation et ergonomie mobile L’expérience d’un casino en ligne commence souvent par la façon dont l’interface s’adapte à un écran réduit. Sur mobile, la navigation doit être intuitive : menus clairs, boutons suffisamment espacés, et pages qui se chargent sans latence perceptible. Les designers modernes privilégient la lecture verticale et des composants adaptatifs pour que…
