Twitter says Barack Obama Nobel Price Itself a Joke
President Barack Obama has won Nobel Peace Prize !!! has taken many people by surprise, including the President himself, who held a brief press conference this morning to discuss the award.
Learning Twitter – and the Golden Rules
Following and Followers
But wait. Are we missing some basics?
- Followers listen to your tweets. How do you get anyone to listen?
- To receive tweets, you need to follow others. Who should you follow?
50% return the follow. 100% should**. The more people you follow (i.e. like thousands), the more interesting the flow.
What’s Next
Use our search guides to find thousands of interesting subjects; and millions of people to talk with.
Click-thru, find a topic, and follow to befriend people.
**Why Should Everyone Share the Follow?
Twitter has the 2,000 and 10%-of-followers limits. If you allow those you follow to NOT return the favor, you’re boxed under 2,000 friends.
Celebrities like John McCain, Britney Spears, and Ashton Kushner (@aplusk) unknowingly box their fans. If 200 real or wanna-be celebrities don’t return your follows, YOU ARE STUCK under 2,000 friends.
Thus, remember these golden rules:
- Return the follow of fans.
- To jump past 2,000 followers, unfollow those who don’t follow you – including Britney. Celebrities like BarackObama, DowningStreet, schwarzenegger, WholeFoods, and zappos do re-follow hundreds of thousands of fans.
- If wanna-be celebrities follow you to entice you to follow, then drops you to make themselves look popular at your expense – block them. It’s a stupid pet trick.
If you don’t, you’re stopped by the 2,000 rule.
Twitter imposed a new, undocumented rule with 1,000 follows per day. We call this the Invite Limit i.e. follow someone to invite them to return the follow. This impacts whales. They can’t return every follow. Sorry 😉 **6/24 The invite limit has been lowered to 500 per day. 7/13 The invite limit has reverted to 1,000 per day. 7/25 Invite limit changed – 1,000 for new accounts; 500 for whales.
We agree with the new rule, but Twitter should not count re-follows as part of the 1,000 limit. Social etiquette says we should return the follow without penalties.
Since whales can no longer follow everyone to see their tweets, you need a new means to reach whales. Type a reply or message like @whalename message. The new Twitter inbox allows whales to see the message.
Don’t use DM, which is widely ignored by whales.
Celebrities don’t always respond. Social whales frequently do. Note that whales don’t provide tech support as a service. Ask favors nicely.
