The Bushman Report – May 30

This one was definitely weird. Random. Odd. Akward. And amusing.

I must be really out of my mind. I have no idea where I got the ambition to make this video.

The first Yellowknife tweetup is today at Javaroma 1-3 be there. I fixed my iSight. Complimented Google and I think I called out Wolframalpha (although I really do like it) with what ended up being a poorly done stereotypical Canadian accent eh.

See you at Javaroma

I Know you Know – So Just say No

Recently we have been trying to promote a Tweetup, a gathering of local Twitter users, here in Yellowknife and it is hard to know if we are getting the message out there.

This is not a hit at anyone personally and this happens everywhere online.

I know that there are a good 50 people on Twitter in Yellowknife and we have tried to reach them all with the Twitter Invite. I don’t know them all, hell I don’t know many of them but that is the point of the tweetup. We have been promoting this particular event for over 2 weeks. There have many blog posts, tweets and ReTweets about it but only 9 people have RSVP’ed. Only 9. This doesn’t mean 9 are coming actually only 6 are coming. It bugs me when you specifically send out these invites to people and they just ignore them all together.

Let me explain how the invite works. You go to link, if you are going you click YES. If you are unsure if you will be attending you click MAYBE. If you are not coming you click NO. There is an option for everyone. So I don’t know why people think they should just ignore it as if they are better than everyone. I’m not trying to rant on anyone, but as someone who helps organize these events it is nice to have an approximate number of how many will be attending and to know that the word is getting around.

Just something I thought I would mention. No hard feeling Okay!

Join Twitter Through Facebook

It seems that a lot of people don’t want to bother with Twitter because all they see it as is a site with just Facebook status’. But this couldn’t be more incorrect.

Somethings Twitter offers:

  1. News – A lot if not all major news station are on Twitter tweeting new stories when they happen. So instead of waiting for the evening news you are able to here about them when they happen. Some celebrities (ie Lance Armstrong) aren’t talking to the media anymore and just tweeting what they have to say.
  2. Marketing  – Have something to sell and promote. Twitter is the place to do it. You are able to share your product with the world.
  3. Answers – Many times I have had a question that I just can not figure out and Google doesn’t have the right answer so I just tweet it. Believe it or not with in 10 minutes I normally have an answer.
  4. Meeting people – Unlike Facebook you can follow people with out them having to approve you or following you back. This is a great resource for finding information in your field or moving to a new place. For example I started following someone who lives close to where I will be attending school in the fall and they are helping me find a place to live. It is like the ultimate networking.

Those are just some I can think of off the top of my head.

If you are still unsure that Twitter is really for you I have an idea for you. If you are on Facebook, which I would assume most of your are and update your status there every once and a while there are many option for you to also send those status’ to Twitter at the same time. It wouldn’t make anymore work for you but it will allow you to dip your toes into the Twitter world while in the comfort of your Facebook Page.

To see the 5 solution from transfering your Facebook status to Twitter check out the post Masable put up.
