    Post Do you use Twitter

    Its like marmite, you either love it or hate it!

    I love the fact its easy, not like a formal blog that I struggle to keep updated.

    Anyway;
    What do you guys think? Using it?

    Feel free to add me, theres a link in my sig.

    Has it effected your business? Increased sales?

    Just let me know your views, im just curiouse to what you all think.

    We have a business twitter account -- I could see it being useful at some point in the future when we have a lot of followers, but at this point it generates ~0 traffic.

    Our company uses Twitter fairly extensively, but I seldom use it. Most of my personal life updates are on Facebook or Myspace.

    I don't have any social networking accounts including but not limited to:

    MySpace
    Facebook
    Twitter
    LinkedIn
    etc.

    I post on dozens of forums that's enough public exposure for me

    I use Twitter for both personal and business uses, it's definitely useful and fun at the same time.

    Yes, for personal use. I tend to find Twitter a better medium to post more varied thoughts than Facebook status updates, which are usually more personal.

    I also have seen that many companys only use twitter for posting adverts and coupons, is this so? Do you guys above that post for business on twitter post anything more than coupons?

    I use it for personal and business (2 separate accounts).

    When it first came along I hated it. But then everyone was using it and I felt a little left behind. Guess in the digital world you have to move with the flow.

    I quite like it now.

    The only option for "I don't use it" says "I hate it". I have an account but I rarely log in. So I guess I don't really use it, but it's not because I hate it.

    Personal use, and for the sake of relevant Google results for searching my name. I don't follow people or anything, I just post random stuff whenever I remember to.

    I'm active with updates on the "business" side. It's nice to have an additional line of communication with the hardcore fans, in case of downtime or whatnot. And it keeps people in the loop with what you're doing.
