Why Use Twitter?
(In Twitspeak, that would be: ‘Y ewes Twitter’ (as suggested by @DavidCarter)
This is the discussion we’ll be having this Friday night!
Join us for the 1st ever Friday night TwitCast with @WarrenWhitlock & @CoachDeb as they battle it out with the Twitterverse to discuss, “What’s the use of Twitter?”
Ok, Ok, Ok, so now you’re asking, “What the heck is a TwitCast?” (Am I right? grinning)
A TwitCast is where 2 or more people get together to discuss a topic on Twitter and broadcast this conversation to the world using Twitter.com inviting their followers to contribute to the discussion.
What is the future use of this TwitCast?
I’m glad you asked!
Warren Whitlock will be writing the Twitter Handbook with Deborah Micek (AKA: @CoachDeb) using this brand new TwitCast method this Friday nite, 7pm ET.
Compare your time zone in your part of the Twitterverse:
We’ll literally be writing the book in 140 character tweets back and forth, conversational style. Then we’ll be asking our followers the question so their contributions can be considered for inclusion in the published book, the Twitter Handbook.
