It's great to see some blogs presenting information on twittering from a corporate Brand perspective.

I can understand your frustration, though I still like the DM feature. If someone DMs me and I need more space, I simply say hey shoot me an email.

My thoughts:
1) We should be able to bulk delete.
2) If I put them in folders then I would never get to them ;) So please no folders.
3) Re sort is a GOOD idea- by user by date. GREAT IDEA !
7) If someone DM’s me I should be able to reply whether they follow me or not.

But DM is not email so I really wouldn’t want Twitter DM to have email features.

“I can’t CC, or copy other people, or send a message to a group. Things that email has been able to do for years”

Isn’t the idea of twitter simple fast communication in 140 characters or less ?

I agree if the reply needs 140 characters or more - people really don’t use DM use an email. I think its an issue with the people DM’ing you though not Twitter.

Which leads me to my favorite rant - Hey PEOPLE if you want to work online in this industry list your email on your blog or website. OK rant over :)

Twitter is for simple DMs Email is for email.

This is a great post. I was just speaking with someone about how I have not been utilizing Linked in to it’s fullest potential. Thanks for the reminder.

There are some of us out there. However we need a better way of connecting with our potential clients.
I contract with the help of some assistants in the area of internet business development, online advertising, and social media. Each contract is unique to the needs of my clients.

I like the wikipedia suggestion above :) I will add it to our standard contract.

You tube seems to be having issues I wasn’t able to view the video. Any chance I can find it somewhere else ?

I have to agree with a lot of your points. My one suggestion would be that you contact the Merchant directly to verify the tactics of this affiliate manager. Many affiliate managers are outsourced/contracted and it may be possible they did not have the merchants endorsement for such a tactic.

I also find my ‘European ‘ friends on Facebook tend to use more security settings. Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I am still in awe over how someone from 3M could NOT have understood the ramifications of their decision regardless of their knowledge of social media.

I would love to see this updated … I may have to find some time to dig about some Canadian stats myself

Really good points Julie. I actually find myself flooded with emails some days. I have a great VA who I will be passing emails to soon :) However, having REALLY clear guidelines for her will be a MUST as will monitoring my outbound emails.
