Share Great Articles on Twitter and Build Your Personal Bibliography
By Stewart Gandolf | April 30, 2010
I have stumbled into a new use for Twitter that I like a lot, so I thought I would share it with you.
I read a LOT of articles from many sources in order to stay cutting edge.
Like many people, I Tweet the good ones on my business Twitter account (@MedicalMktg).
Because Twitter keeps a history of user Tweets, I can go back to my account time and again to review articles that interest me.
I will often use those articles as fodder for articles, posts or marketing strategies for my clients.
It is like a personal bibliography (reading list) of my favorite articles.
I also review other people’s past Tweets to, 1) find more great articles, and 2) decide if I want to follow them.
So, assuming you use Twitter for more than just updates about your personal life, you can use it to build a powerful, archived knowledge base, without having to create a separate list somewhere, or create hundreds of bookmarks that you will never use.
Plus, Twitter lets you share your favorite things with hundreds or thousands of others at zero cost. (Pay it forward.)
