Are You An Influent Twitterer?

I feel that Twitter is a more professional social network than Facebook. The people I follow and those who follow me are not necessarily my friends on Facebook and in life. I use Twitter to get in touch with co-workers or even professors, but not to really say what's on my mind.

Thanks to a website called We Follow, I started to follow people with a lot of influence in the social media field like Pete Cashmore from Mashable or TechCrunch. Wefollow.com provides the list of people who have the biggest number of followers in different categories (celebrities, news, social media...). It's really helpful for me because these twitterers constantly talk about things that I need to know as a Communications major.

You can add yourself to Wefollow.com if you want to measure your influence on Twitter. But if you're anything like me, you'd rather directly go twinfluence.com where you don't need to fill out anything just to realize that you don't have any influence!

Social media are more than just the platforms themselves. You have to dig a little to see the whole universe around and how you can take advantage of it. That's what I'm going to do! I really feel I should use Twitter to promote my blog. My influence might be really small for the moment, at least I know it! With all these tools in my hands, I should be able to make it bigger!

So I might as well start right now:
