Twitter.xxx
I’m young and curious. And somehow found myself a selection of peculiar Twitter accounts. What’s interesting is that most of these accounts started in 2007, and have very few followers, and generally fewer tweets. So whether you think Twitter is Great or you’re on team ‘Fuck Twitter’ – it’s definitely the topic of conversation.
I’ll tweet your secret in a minute
What the deuce is SecretTweet?
@sn11 Secrettwitter or something loik that search “SecretTweet” its people who post to this site then the site posts them up on secret tweet
I’m sorry, baking powder? SecretTweet is a site that allows you to submit your most scandalous secret anonymously. This is then tweeted by @SecretTweet and your sin is let loose to the world, without the fear of retribution or embarrassment. You’ve shared your pain, but nobody can laugh at you for it.
So what do people think about SecretTweet?
@cynjh secret tweets is so scandalous – it’s like dynasty on steroids.
@thelonelysouls There’s some people posting some sick shit over at Secret Tweet. I’ve been reading it on and off all day long.
@LipLand God secret tweet is bloody depressing!
@TheLuluBean This secret tweet thing makes me realize how horrible people are. Even if they’re faked.
@jestergoblin I THINK PEOPLE ON SECRET TWEET ARE BATSHIT INSANE.

Twitter Ettiquette: The Definition of Awkward IRL (Guest Post)

The definition of awkward:
Social Networks and Time: Some Visual Thoughts
I’ve been doing some visual thinking around the way that social networks and, in particular, the people who make them up and the content they produce, affects the amount of time we allow to each person (or singular piece of information) in that network.
Facebook moving to its new layout was a significant indicator of this relationship.
As the popularity of social media and networks increases the amount of people on our individual networks also increases. Driven by the power of weak ties, we’re compelled to connect with more and more people from the different circles of our lives. Facebook – which hit 5,000,000 Australian users this year – quickly spotted the growing popularity of Twitter, and mimicked the model used to display information from the network. Being a Twitter user I’m actually a big fan of the change.
It allows me to see more content, from more friends in the same amount of time.
A Digital Perspective: Sandra Davey
Sandra Davey is straight to the point – no bullshit, just action. Sandra is the ex-National President of AIMIA, and currently still holds a position on the board. Sandra has been a great source of inspiration and knowledge for me since joining the industry, so I’m very happy to present her views on the industry moving forward.
Look forward to your feedback.
ad:tech 2009: Twitter
Like all social media, new technologies and innovations
have allowed people to connect online in new ways.
Over the two days at ad:tech 2009 in Sydney I said Twitter more times than I said fuck. Which is rare. But seriously, it was the topic on everyone’s mind, and at everyone’s finger tips. I was lucky enough to be invited to open and moderate the final session of day 1, dedicated to the topic: The Relevance of Twitter.
I was joined by Gavin Heaton, Mike Hickinbotham and Laurel Papworth. We received great feedback about our interactive panel.
Twitter rant, /rant
Michelle baited me with some Twitter skepticism over at ARN. And as Katie would put it: I got a little shouty. Reflecting back, I don’t really mind — the 600 people below and I seem to have some brilliant conversation and share some amazing stories (and you too can get your twitter mosaic).
People, conversations, community and network. All in 140 characters. Oh, and you – that’s not so frightening is it?
