Twitter is a rapid famous social bookmark moreover twitters has found in 2008. Blogger, business owner, or affiliate like this social bookmark to promote their website, service and product. If they have 1000 followers, the message will arrive fast to the followers.


The pros

I like twitter because it is simple to use. This social bookmark is designed to easy for every body. We just type any word that we have planed before and the click update button. The twitter goes to your friend immediately.

The big difference with other social bookmark is the voting. In twitter, we do not have to vote up or vote down. The voting make unpopular content will not show in front page. Our article will stay at bottom of the website. Some people could make multiply account to raise their popularity. They vote up the article so the article could rise up to front of page social bookmark.

A website tells me that twitter are monetize able. We can sign in to twittad.com to get some bucks. Las time, they bid me ad space in my twitter $ 2.5 for a week. I did not receive it because I want to raise my follower first. Someday I will take the ads.


The Cons

The difficult of the twitter is identifying our friend. It is difficult to recognize our friend especially the interest. For example, I like business interest but I like other interest too like politician, blog, etc. It is hard to determine our niche market and others niche market.

There is no tag in twitter; it makes us difficult to find tag. Twitter also has no group like other social bookmark. It is also difficult for us to get friend with some idea or interest.

Twitter limits our word up to 140 characters. Some people could not post at limited word. Perhaps they want add word to explain the news or blog.

You might be better attracting friends and followers by writing about your interests in forums and using twitter in your signiture file. That way you will know where people are coming from. Use a tracking program to track your click through rate.
