Twitter and HootSuite

February 3, 2012 By 23 Comments

I don’t know if you are like me but I can’t figure out Twitter for the life of me. It’s so fast paced, I see all these hashtags, it’s like a whole new language. I signed up for Twitter a few months back thinking, I’m cool and hip, I can figure this out. Nope!

I’m learning though! Thanks to Melissa at Momcomm who wrote this great post – The Basics of Using HootSuite and introduced me to the only way I can keep up with Twitter.

I want to follow you guys! I set up a way so when you comment you can add your Twitter handle (you like that…I’m learning the terminology). Be sure to add your name so I can follow you :O)

You know I can’t post without a photo :O) Sorry about another split light shot…I’m a bit obsessed lately.

    Hi Courtney,
    Thanks for sharing the article and photo! We’re glad to see you using the dashboard. I hope HootSuite is helping you navigate Twitter and other social networks.

    I’m with you on not quite being able to get twitter. I recently discovered hootsuite and it’s great! It definitely makes Twitter so much easier. I also love that I can post to my twitter and facebook page at the same time.

    Great self portrait! Twitter is much easier when I use Intasgram…take photo, write a tiny bit, publish to both instagram and twitter.

    Fabulous photo! I love using Twitter to see news from my followed celebrities. But I am not aware of this HootSuit.

    I love Twitter but absolutely can NOT use it without Hootsuite. Another big thing for me is putting people in lists. Sometimes, I only want to see updates from my local people so I have a list of DFW people. It’s a separate column in my dashboard and saves lots of time for me. Maybe that will help you, too.

    I feel like I’m finally getting the hang of Twitter after a few months. I know we already follow each other but I’d love to link up with other CIUANers!

    I was pretty heavy into Twitter when it first came out a few years ago — but the love affair fizzled for one reason or another. I go on there occasionally — but nothing like the “old days.” :)

    Oh this is exciting! I love twitter, but I don’t completely “get” twitter. Thanks, once again, for showing us something great!
