Yeah, but guess what, lots of you are still doing it wrong. It’s not just a matter of being on Twitter but also of how you interact (assuming that is, that you interact), and what you send out to the world to make sure your digital footprint is as deep and defined as you’d like it to be.
Let’s face it, just like some other things (swimming and sparring have been used as examples recently) – you can know how to do it “by the book,” but until you feel water on your skin or a jab to the face working with the tools and on the platform isn’t the same beast at all.

Alright All right folks – let’s try this again. As a very late followup to part won of this post, presented below are some of you’re own pet peeves when it comes to proper word youse. And if you haven’t noticed it yet – every underlined word so far is improperly yoused or completely nonexistent. As a reminder, I’ll repeat the notes presented in the first post – Continue reading →
