I Don’t Think Any Of Those Apply 2 Me and What I Use Twitter For…I Use Twitter Because It Is Information Drivin and I Want To Share News and Knowledge That Ppl Don’t Get From Mainstrem Media Outlets…
Thanks for the comment, @CoraxSays. Maybe none of those apply to you, because you weren’t in my stream when I created the chart! Or maybe you’re enchanting!
I’d say you’re a Twitterati; caps on every word? That’s gotta be intentional. Nobody likes the shift key that much.
Great post Dave. Most of my clients are of the ‘delusion’ type, but I wouldn’t say they’re delusional.
Why? Well, in the very near future Google will use the quality of your followers to help determine your websites position in the natural search results.
Also by targeting competitors followers you can literally swipe business from under their noses.
I get it now! It’s Me me me trying to get Enchanting!
I have experimented with being a bot…
I have also had my me me me days and I have had my guru syndromes on my way to being famous.
If I had to pick one, it would definitely be… “I get it now Because I’m enchanting”
