A lot of my company is now on Twitter, and it’s about time, considering that we’re in the digital marketing business. One of the bigwigs recently suggested that everyone not on the bandwagon suck it up and start tweeting. There’s been a lot of grumbling, and most people answer “What are you doing?” in less than inspiring ways, if at all.
I, however, am excited by Twitter. I like word games and being pithy. But if a tweet goes out on the Internet and no one is there to snicker at it, was it indeed tweeted?
I’m trying to not so subtly nudge my favorite co-workers to follow me.
Me: How’s it going? I think you should follow me on Twitter as a gesture of solidarity with people with a sense of humor. Hardly anyone here is using it, and many who do tweet things like, “Chewing gum. I love it.”
Co-worker: Umm. Okay.
One more person coerced, a few billion to go.
