On my Experience in Using Twitter …

by on 09-09-2009 01:22 AM

I've now been using my Twitter account for a few months, in order to provide quick updates about my work and activities.


My overall experience is positive. The 140 chars limitation is actually a pros, imposing some discipline on what to say and focus.


I have used Twitter many times to complement my blogging activities, to provide short pointers to blog posts of interest, to a wide community of followers.


I noticed that the communities operating in Twitter are nowadays much more active and dynamic than the ones operating in the traditional blogging space.

Hi.


Good question. I guess it is pretty much the same as the one for blogging ...


Being a researcher at HP Labs, it is part of my duties to create awareness about my R&D work (and HP/HP Labs'), show leadership in areas of research, share ideas and facts with a broad community of interest, get input and feedback that can help me to refine my research and eventually translate it into HP solutions and products.


I think that Twitter (as well as blogs) is an interesting tool that can help making some progress in that direction ...
