Everyday it seems people ask me to relate my experiences on Twitter. The usual chatter I hear is that it's useless because no one really cares to know the ins and outs of some stranger's Starbucks experience, etc. Even the new Verizon Wireless commercial makes fun of the dad who tweets that he's now sitting on his porch, much to his teen-aged son's chagrin. OK. I get it. Who cares about this kind of stuff.
What I've come to learn in my short time of using Twitter is that for those who can understand how to unleash its power are those who benefit the most. Take me, for example. I've procured new clients as a result of Twitter. And not only one. The power of the internet, let alone Twitter, is indeed remarkable.
But Twitter is difficult to know how to use. More than one person has told me they're kind of afraid to use it because they don't want to make any mistakes.
So...here comes oneforty inc. Laura Fitton, oneforty's founder and CEO describes oneforty as "a marketplace for the Twitter community to discover and share tools and services that make Twitter valuable."
And just an hour ago EST, oneforty inc. launched into (closed) beta. Right now the oneforty twitter conference with speakers @TonyRobbins, @Dr.Drew, @GavinNewsom and @TonyHawk continues on.
So...if you've heard about oneforty and are curious to get going with it, you now can by going to the www.oneforty.com site and typing in FFTrial as the code to get in.
Go on. Give it a try. It's fun and packed with applications that make Twitter more fun and easier to use.
