THVideo: Twitter 101 with Alyson Courtney
Posted at 8:35:42 AM by Lance Turner 0 comments

On "Today's THV This Morning," Alyson Courtney and I gave a quick, broad overview of Twitter and some businesses and organizations in Arkansas are using it. Click here to see the video.*

Like I said in the video, it's easy to get "social media fatigue" trying to keep up with all that's out there. The key for anyone thinking about using Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn, whatever, is to think about your goals, the way you work, and your possible audience, then experiment to see what service best fits you based on that criteria.

You don't have to do it all. But you should be aware of what's out there.

Also noted in the segment: How the government is using Twitter to keep citizens abreast of the swine flu, how Tyson Foods is using Twitter as part of its charitable work, and Delta Trust & Bank's plans to Twitter this weekend from the Berkshire-Hathaway shareholders meeting.

Find THV Twitterers here. See more Arkansas Twitterers via my Arkansas Twitter Guide. And follow me on Twitter @LT, and Arkansas Business @ArkBusiness.

(* Did you catch my flub? I said "240" characters instead of "140." What can I say? It was 6:40 in the morning.)
