Hey Birdcat – read some of the folks tweets to see how they manage in 140 char. I use “Tweetdeck” to autoshorten URL’s. I tweet or retweet stuff to my local and very small community of followers. Often just to promote that I just wrote on my blog or something in town worthy of attention. I’m not TOTALLY devoted to it though and find, like hiding FACEBOOK people who post game scores, that using tweetdeck I can hide certain people who are more prolific than profound.
I use google analytics and can easily prove that my tweets do drive people to my website. That being said…as far as I know…no one has ever come to me for a video based solely on my tweets.
