Hi kelly, there is a website/application called twitterfeed that allows you to set up as many blog feeds as you like and it checks for updates and posts tweets whenever there is a new post. It's pretty simple to set up, just go to twitterfeed.com. You need an openID login to be able to use it. Hope this helps! Francines last blog post..I gots the crud

Hi Valerie,

I didn’t really ‘get’ Twitter either, and to some extent I still don’t. Why would people want to sit and read the waves of endless chatter?

I don’t want to, and so I don’t. I think by targeting keywords of interest to you, and replying to those threads, you have a much better chance of becoming involved in meaningful conversations, instead of just chatter.

Get a good twitter application- I like TweetDeck. That will help immensely.

I have to admit I’m not really “getting it.” I’m on twitter but still learning and feeling like I’m surely missing something. But like Omar, I’m committed to figuring it out.

I am having a difficult time getting a handle on what exactly to tweet about. I do not want to sound to trivial or too spammy. I have recently started to tweet my blog posts. But I am determined to make Twitter work for me. Omar Omars last blog post..Tips on Ranking Well With the Search Engines
