i dont know if there’s any formula or principles for getting your stuff noticed. sometimes it just happens if a few people start forwarding it and it multiples out of control. a good example are email forwards – if they are really funny or unique, it gets flicked around quickly.

totally agree w butterfly effect. its just figuring out how to start one.

great movie too – very intense!!!!!!!!!!

It's great to see the effect of a link that hits the spot. But you also take the risk of annoying your followers if all you post are links to your own work. Mix it up with conversation and links to other content.

An advantage of having a huge network of followers is by probability (and interest as well, I'm not negating that), the more followers you have, a greater number of them will pick up what you've just tweeted and will help to spread the word. Of course, tweeters with a small following shall not be discouraged - anything newsworthy that is capable to capturing the attention of the masses, will be equally powerful in eliciting a strong butterfly effect. It all boils down to the content one is sharing on Twitter :) Thanks for the great writeup!

Every online marketer needs to understand the power of Butterflies, you only have to look at the viral element of the Butterfly Marketing Manuscript by Mr Mike Filsaime to see how this works. I was one of those people that never got Twitter... after really taking the time to give Twitter a try I am a Twitterholic (is that the right term ;) ). Thanks for posting.

I enjoyed it. I still think Twitter will eventually die out. I think it is going to turn into another spam social media site like many of the other ones. There are already so many people automating replies and just trying to promote and don't really care about the conversational aspect of it. Then again, maybe I am just now following the right people.

I love it. I fully believe in the butter effect, and especially of getting under the wing of thought leaders and great mentors. For me, being taken under the wing of one of the teachers from the Secret was one of the biggest things for me...and then even BIGGER things happened. It all started though because of other little events that occurred in years prior that lead me on a path, a journey of personal growth and self-development, which ultimately lead me to flying with the eagles. --Sean Patrick Simpson What a great story!
