Moses, Smell the Roses!

Before I dive into my topic of choice for this post, let me just say I love quoting Seinfeld (Title of this post, for example) and you will see more of this as I build up my Brepetoire (blog repertoire).

First off, I love this trend of Social Media and Inbound Marketing and the passion fellow marketers have for learning, molding, and using these tools to help their companies. I love being online and observing how companies are utilizing Social Media to generate leads and build brand awareness.

BUTT....I mean, HOWEVER...Twitter. I think Twitter might be my only peeve at the moment. Some Tweeps just need to shut their Twaps, to be frank...or kind...or humorous. :) For example, I follow certain people or companies because they post informative blog links about current marketing trends, etc. Sometimes, it's cool to have blogs sifted out for you without having to do the searching. I, of course, do my best as well to post topics of interest to my followers. Although, still not sure why some people follow me anyway. As Napoleon Dynamite would say, "I'm pretty cool, I guess."

So, what am I getting at? FYI, you don't need to post upward of 10 or more tweets a day! You're killing me smalls, put all of your cool backlinks in your own blog and send a tweet about it later (ex: some cool marketing links to check out today!)

You're boring, you're annoying, you're OVERWHELMING, and almost spamming my feed! I KNOW there's tweetdeck, I know you can filter, but, I love some of the Tweeps I am following and am thankful for the blog update links. BUTT...HOWEVER...I can't keep up with you, home-kat, if you're posting every 5 minutes, literally. And I don't want to. I'd rather be hiking, or biking, or swimming, my goodness! Step away from Twitter...breathe!

Now that THAT'S out of my system, I'm attending a linkedin event tonight in encinitas, I'm hoping for something positive. Oh, and maybe I'll get to use those business cards, finally.

Cheers and Ciao and Have an Awesome One!
