Twitter Usage Skyrocketing

By Nicholas Chase

The power and reach of Twitter will be demonstrated using the following example from my recent on-line success in contacting powerful allies in my chosen market, in order to increase my contact, knowledge and focus in a challenging industry.

I discovered Twitter in September 2008 and joined as an exercise to see if it could benefit my on-line effort to become self-employed.

While reading the stream of 'tweets' which are comprised of short 140 character messages sent out to 'followers' of other 'twitterers' I came across an executive for BlogWorld Expo 2008 in Las Vegas, Nevada USA.

I contacted the individual and began an exchange by email, which resulted in my attending this conference absolutely free of charge, where I was able to meet in person several of the 'thought-leaders' in the on-line blogging and marketing space.

Without Twitter's extensive reach, I would not have been able to subsequently obtain an invitation to a private dinner with these same highly successful entrepreneurs, some of whom have offered to consult with me to avoid the traps and pitfalls of a start-up on-line marketing company.

Twitter continues to enhance my reach into groups and individuals which will eventually allow my becoming an authority in my selected business goals.

Imagine my surprise to receive an email notification that Sir Richard Branson was now 'following' my tweets on Twitter! Now, given I may believe that I have something to warrant Sir Richard Branson's, attention but I have not
yet figured this out.

I would not have been able to receive this good news in my email inbox, without the power and reach of Twitter.

I use it as a resource and follow the thought-leaders, commenting on their blog posts and engaging constantly with comments left on my blogs. It will be fascinating to watch my blog traffic grow and blog about Qassia on my blog after I have had some success.

Thank you for reading my first intel, there will be many more I can assure you.


Contributor's Note

My first intel was written to spread the word on the immense power and reach I discovered from Twitter.com, now at over four-million users and growing. Twitter is not a waste of time but a micro-blogging portal to the world.
