Something Happened on Twitter for me...

Posted by Mike Volpe on Thu, Oct 30, 2008
 

Once I got to about 1,000 followers on Twitter.  I noticed that something changed.  I used to Tweet, and not get much of a response.  And if I did, it was from people I knew.

Just a couple days ago, I tweeted that I was in the Atlanta airport (with a link to a photo).  A few months ago nothing would have happened.  But now I got a number of replies and carried on a couple mini-conversations - all with people I have not met in real life.

I continue to be surprised by the entertainment / community / usefulness of Twitter as my network grows.  So, follow me on Twitter!  I'll follow you back.

Great post, and congrats on the 1000 followers.  
 
As my followers have grown I have noticed this happening as well. Twitter is a great platform indeed! 
 
Oh and by the way, checked my http://friendorfollow.com stats, and you are not following me. :-( 
 
Have a great day!

How nice that Popeye's Fried Chicken could bring us together again - last time it was food and drinks at Lucky's Lounge ;). 
 
My only concern is issue about growing too big to have those conversations (or missing tweets), but I'm glad the scale works for you. 
 
Good timing as I literally just booked a flight for Bos-Atl myself. I'll tweet you that day for sure!

Something happened on Twitter for me as well, last night you tweeted about our dinner meeting and this morning I have 12 new followers. Having just started out a couple months ago, I'm at 108 followers but they are all the types of people I want following and to follow.  
 
Thanks!

Hi Mike - I'm a part of your growing twitter network and one the tweople sighted above @Realestatecoach :) I returned the favor and wrote a post about your post. It's parked at the online social community for real estate professionals called Active Rain.
