Someone once said: Change is inevitable. Any savvy online entrepreneur who wants to remain at the forefront understands that change requires surfing the bleeding edge of technology.
So the question in our minds must always be: “What’s on the horizon and how can I use that to get ahead of my competitors today?”
Thirty years ago, there was no internet. Five years ago YouTube was still just a dream. If you watched Biz Stone and Evan Williams on The View this morning, you’ll know that three years ago, Twitter didn’t tweet.
Today, we literally don’t have to leave our computers to book a flight, pay a bill, shop or even connect with a tribe of like minded individuals.
The Internet, YouTube and Twitter are part of our daily lives.
No one could predict the impact each development would have. In fact Bill Gates famously admitted:
“Sometimes we do get taken by surprise. For example, when the Internet came along, we had it as a fifth or sixth priority. It wasn’t like somebody told me about it and I said, ‘I don’t know how to spell that.’ I said, ‘Yeah, I’ve got that on my list, so I’m okay.’ But there came a point when we realized it was happening faster and was a much deeper phenomenon than had been recognized in our strategy.”
Don’t get taken by surprise!

I don’t remember what life was like before Twitter but I’m starting to think about what life could be like after Twitter is gone. (Gasp! Did I just say that?! Twitter = Gone? Really?)
Now that Twitter has entered the mainstream, does it change the Twittersphere? Is it possible to engage when you have a million PLUS followers?
You betcha! As long as you focus on reaching people and engaging them with RELEVANT information, ENGAGING content or ENTERTAINING broadcasts.
Now that so many tweeters are using auto-follow robots to increase their followers on Twitter by 1,000 - 2,000 a day, is anyone really listening anymore? Has Twitter reached the tipping point of being irrelevant?
Should Twitter remove the follower count from profiles? These are the debates raging in the Twittersphere these days - ever since Ashton Kutcher and Evan Williams introduced Oprah to Twitter on her show.
One of the questions I’m asked most often is how to increase followers? But if you focus only on building your followers… your tweeps… you’re ignoring one of the key questions you should be asking yourself: where will I be if Twitter shuts down tomorrow?
Join me this Thursday for a special Ustream LIVE broadcast where I’ll my secrets for growing your list and attracting powerful influencers so you’ll know what to do when the Death of Twitter comes.
