Maybe I’m not in the blogging looop enough because I must say I have no idea what Twitter is? Can someone help a blind sheep please? Maybe I should just go buy the book and it will clue me in. thanks

At some stage, I’ll have to get onto Twitter.

For the moment, I personally have been prioritizing my online time on blogging, commenting on other blogs and participating in other discussion forums, but it seems everyone is using Twitter these days, so I guess I’ll just have to catch up at some stage.

It’s funny how many bloggers publish blogs that are made of paper.

Hi Michael,

I couldn’t miss this video post. I’m really happy for you because it means a lot to be in a book. I think when you’re in a book about something it’s like a part of your legacy. Years will pass and maybe someday in a museum will see this book and a list with some people that are in it. So I think it’s like a way to remain in history and that means something.

I also use Twitter (I’m WebOptimization for those that don’t know me) and I think that if you are doing the right things you can get benefits from using Twitter. For example I started to receive traffic from Twitter whenever I post a link to my blog. If I interact with my followers they’ll RT my link and if they’re like someone with influence I’ll get more traffic. I didn’t got any client yet but I’ve managed to help few users, one gave me a testimonial and another one said he will write one. So yes, I recommend Twitter as a great social tool that gives you the ability to interact in such a great way. It practically gives you the possibility to be human, to be who you are and get traffic and clients and finally but not last FRIENDS. Because of Twitter I’ve managed to talk to you Michael and benefit from what you know. I’ve managed to talk with Gary Vaynerchuk who answers all my e-mails and all my DM (and I’m sure he gets a lot). I’ve talked to Chris Brogan or Jim Connolly and many others. It’s a fantastic tool so if you don’t use it GO CREATE AN ACCOUNT NOW !

Congratulations and I’ll see you all on Twitter.

Michael,

First, I am going to get in touch with you. My partner and I have a couple businesses and we are focusing on one right now. So we may wait on the site I talked to you about. But, I we have another site that may need your help. So I will be in contact.

Second, what is that CD-Key for on your whiteboard. Your office looks like mine, except I have a great view of the mountains in Costa Rica!
