Your suggestions are perfect for those who don't quite get Twitter. Like you said it's not about "What Your Doing" it's about the conversation. Often it's helping people and posting interesting facts and quotes but other times (and this is what makes Twitter great) is giving people a little window into your world. Great post. I love your blog (I'll admit it too). -Seth Goldstein <a href="http://www.twitter.com/sethgoldstein" rel="nofollow">@sethgoldstein</a> <a href="http://www.sethgoldstein.net/" rel="nofollow">My Blog</a> <a href="http://www.addictedtosocialmedia.com/" rel="nofollow">Addicted To Social Media</a> Alisa,

Great post. Your suggestions are perfect for those who don’t quite get Twitter. Like you said it’s not about “What Your Doing” it’s about the conversation. Often it’s helping people and posting interesting facts and quotes but other times (and this is what makes Twitter great) is giving people a little window into your world.

Great post. I love your blog (I’ll admit it too).

I must say the examples of narcissistic tweets you picked were all witty and interesting; I visited some of the tweeters you mentioned. I do think that a large part of web promotion is contingent on the personality one projects. In terms of blogs, there are plenty of blogs which say pretty much the same thing. I usually end up going to the ones where I want to engage the writer him/herself, and am curious what s/he has to say. I don't have a very interesting life, and I don't know how successful a twitterer I am. I spend a lot of time asking my twitter followers questions and trying to get them to talk about what's important to them. I don't know if it'll work, but it's interesting to me: people have stories to tell, and they're good. Thank you for this post!

I hope you find me human as well because I most definitely am. I try to mix it up. If it's OK, I will link this blog post into a presentation I am making next week on exactly this topic.

Grats on the guest post. Nice topic you have here and I whole heartily agree, there is room for Vanity Tweets and being a LEO I am sometimes known to do that but there is a way to it tactfully.

Sure, some of them are articles that I wrote, but I share other people's stuff too! It's always nice to get a reply back thanking me for allaying their fear or helping them make a decision. :) A lot of my tweeting is finding people who are having questions or concerns about online dating and pointing them to resources to help them.

Being useful hasn't gone out of style. Links etc are always good things. But it's also good to be real. At lease IMHO. Glad you all found it refreshing. Being useful hasn’t gone out of style.

A majority of my tweets are about links, retweets, direct messages to friends, and occasional personal stuff calibrated to put my best foot forward. Well, well, time to slip in some rare and endearing - I hope - glimpses into my narcissistic side then. Here's hoping I don't scare off a lot of people though. lol This is a revelation.
