I came across a brilliant article on the art of Twittering. The web site is called Zappos.com and the article is by Tony H. CEO (I think that's his stage name).
He writes about how Twitter Can Make You A Better (and Happier) Person. Writes Tony, "it comes down to these four things":
- Transparency & Values: Twitter constantly reminds me of who I want to be, and what I want Zappos to stand for
- Reframing Reality: Twitter encourages me to search for ways to view reality in a funnier and/or more positive way
- Helping Others: Twitter makes me think about how to make a positive impact on other people’s lives
- Gratitude: Twitter helps me notice and appreciate the little things in life"
For those who have been engaged in this act of Twittering, they will know exactly what Tony is talking about. I'd even say, as a blogger these past 5+ years, the same can be said for blogging.
I particularly like #2 although they all resonate with me.
