I don’t have an ‘all tweets’ column on tweetdeck.
Can you explain how can I can set one up?

Thank you so much for this! I am definitely a newbie, and this really helps. But I biggest question is how do you get through all the tweets - even with tweet deck. I follow some social guru’s and they seem to tweet hourly. Don’t have the time to keep up.

Hi Barb! Great post… and I’d have to agree that your looking more like a twitter rock star than a newbie to me Thanks for linking to the Rock Star post - I just updated w/ 2 months worth of new twitter case study.

Hi Pam. Yes, I’ve heard of Qwitter, though I don’t use it. I know people who are obsessed with it, and get upset when a follower stops following. Here’s my question, though: were you following back, or was it all 1-way? Personally, I follow lots of people initially because I *think* they might be interesting or that we have interests in common, and sometimes that doesn’t turn out to be the case. Following on Twitter is not like “friending” on facebook; to un-follow is not necessarily a snub. And there are limits on Twitter to the number of people you can follow (initially it’s 2000, then gets raised once you have close to that number of followers). So when you’re getting close to the limit, sometimes you have to unfollow some non-mutuals. So getting too focused on who just Qwit and why is probably misplaced, in my opinion. Besides, I definitely don’t need anything else to obsess about.

Thanks for the great article Barb! I definitely took away some fantastic tips on building my network. Have you heard of Qwitter? It’s a wonderful tool that allows you to track who un-follows you and when. It’s a hit amongst Twitterers here in Toronto. Anyhow, keep the wonderful posts coming! Pam
