Over lunch with a friend the other day, I learned that her 2 teenage daughters both recently asked “What’s Twitter?” Well, that confirmed something I’d already suspected. Twitter isn’t like Kix and for kids. It’s for adults. Eager to learn some of the ways others are using Twitter for their online marketing efforts? Here’s a whole list to check out:
Filter out conversations – TweetDeck
Find new businesses and/or potential customers on http://www.twibs.com/
Analyze your stats on http://twittercounter.com/
Look at the pattern of your tweets on http://tweetstats.com/
Search for local folks on http://tweepsearch.com/search/dacort?query=location:seattle
Set up automatic follow, unfollow and DM’s on http://www.socialtoo.com
Search for any topic in real time on http://search.twitter.com/
You can even add a video for your page on http://www.bubbletweet.com/
Locate people relevant to you here http://twitter-friends.com/
and here http://mrtweet.net/
Identify when’s the best time to tweet someone http://www.tweetoclock.com/
Delete people who don’t follow you on http://friendorfollow.com/ (can’t say I reco this, maybe they have ADHD or just can’t keep up)
Loads of folks have generated new business through Twitter, maybe you will too?
