40,000 Tweets and then some

This past weekend I tweeted my 40,000th tweet, and I have been on Twiiter for over 5 years. My Twitter strategy, as it fits into my overall social media strategy, is to be informative and entertaining (infotainment). I think that I have done a pretty good job of doing that, but that is not for me to say. (http://davewoodson.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/twitter.jpg)

When I had started out on Twitter. I had just been ousted from my once a week radio gig. I had enjoyed getting my voice out there. So, I had to find something else to help me do that. I was on Facebook, but that did not seem appropriate at the time with the volume that I wanted to push out. I was listening to the Leo Laporte show and I heard him say something about Twitter and about 5 minutes later. I was LIVE on Twitter, and the rest they say is history.

I promised many that I would get this out yesterday. I was able to get he podcast done, but I was wiped out by the time I got home. I just wanted to crash on the couch, and I did. As promised here are the tools that I use to manage Twitter and many of my other social sites. 

HootSuite (http://hootsuite.com)- helps me manage lists and my other accounts all from the same page

ManageFlitter (http://manageflitter.com) - allows me to mass unfollow and unfollow those that not using the site. 

NutShellMail.com - sends me a twice daily email showing me who has followed and unfolloeed me. (yes, I am that petty at times)

thank you for listening. I will be back next week.
