Title: I've never TWEETED ...
Post by: workin4alivin on December 17, 2013, 08:26:43 am
Is Tweeting easier to maneuver through than facebook?  I don't like facebook ... it's always changing and things are never where they were the last time I visited (chuckle)

I'd like to earn more via FC Tweet ... what has ya'lls experience been with the tweeting thing?

I tried it but do not really understand how to earn the FC cash as it did not seem to show up in my earnings balance.

I made an account once and followed one person lol after that I never went back on and I don't even remember my username or password.

Yeah I agree with many of you. I've never tweeted, am not really interested in tweeting and am definitely not interested in reading about what other people had for breakfast or what nail polish they are applying. It seems such a waste of time - I just feel I am better used elsewhere. No offense to those that enjoy it. It wouldn't do if we all liked the same things would it.

The good thing about twitter posts is that you can have other social apps automatically repost on their platform.  As an example whenever I post on twitter it also posts to my facebook account.  I used to be automatically able to post to my LinkedIn account too but for some reason the Twitter/LinkedIn connection went sour due to some CEO executive decisions.  None the less, having followers on twitter and tweeting links has some commercial merit or companies would not encourage the linking and tweeting.  This in part, is why FC and other such programs reward their members for following and tweeting.

Twitter is just dumb if you ask me.  I have an account but it's only to promote the programs I'm in and I haven't gotten any sign ups from it.  Just a bunch of nothing.  I don't see the hype.  The only think twitter is good for are for celebrities to tweet nonsense.

I have an account with Facebook and Twitter. I actually like Twitter better. It is considered micro logging in a way. Short little posts and you get to follow everyone. Facebook as gotten, not only too big, but colder, if that makes sense. I remember a time when Facebook felt comfortable. Now it's like a machine.

I've tweeted - but I had to ask my 15 year old for help.  I just don't understand it.  I have an account - I opened it so I could like FC and other companies.  I have 2 followers - whoo whoo!  I could have 2000 folowers and I wouldn't know the difference on there.  I usually forget to log in to twitter (and facebook for that matter) I do when I'm on the ball and have time to utilize codes on there.  FB does change it's interface much to often - as often as I use it though - it's really not a big deal for me.

I have both a facebook account and a twitter account and very rarely use either one of them.  I have never tweeted .. don't see the point .. and only go on face book to see updated pics from my niece.

Is tweeting like using a phone? I have never done it before so I'm glad I am not the only one. I am pretty sure that my ninth grader probably knows how it works. I am just an old fashion type person who doesn't keep up with the latest technologies and the new terms of our day and age.

I thought the whole purpose of Twitter was to put less than 150 characters in anything you post and that was it.   :-\

And I guess that it helps others when they ask me to follow them. I've done that before, but not much else.

I agreee... I don't need 'followers" I do like to read other peoples tweets if they are inspirational or funny but other than that... don't see the point.....

Twitter is a major platform for celebrity news, and all the drama associated with it. I don't think it is for normal people.

I think the best description for Twitter I've ever heard was that it is like a delayed instant message.  Short, quick to the point post to someone/the world.

I don't have facebook - have issues with the company's "privacy" policies and choose not to support them as a result.  I have a Twitter account and use it on some sites and tasks that require Tweeting or following - but following only if the app doesn't require access to my account to post things "on my behalf" (watch out for these when doing tasks).

Lately I've been using Twitter as a training grounds before I attempt to launch a blog.  I figure if I can't occasionally post 140 characters of something I deem "interesting", I have no business trying to maintain a blog.

I have never tweeted either.  I don't have a cell phone so what is the point?  Also, I agree with you about FB.  Every time I think I have a handle on it, it changes so now I have no idea who sees what when i post or send something.  And, who are all those people that want to be my friend? But, I would be able to make more on the videos if I tweeted.

All I know is when I cashout my Fusioncash, it has a button the lets me Tweet that I got paid and it's simple. Who knows, I might just get a referral from it some day

I have not even tried to tweet to this day. I guess I'm kinda old fashioned. However, I really enjoyed skyping with my nephew some time ago. It was a new experience, but it turned out to be fun. Maybe twitter will be the same. I think I'll just go ahead and give it a try.

I go through waves with it. Sometimes I'm on it a ton, other times weeks will go by without me tweeting anything. I do think it's fun, and I like to be able to get breaking news. Like, the last time there was a huge blizzard here, the Highway department was tweeting what conditions they were finding on each of the roads, and other people were tweeting what they were running into, and letting people know which roads were safe.

 :moon: I have been tempted to try it only for the FC earning but no I have no experience with it.  I do facebook only to stay in touch with my deceased husband's family.   Otherwise I am not that crazy about facebook and probably noy "tweeting" either lol

I did finally give in and join Facebook, but I have no interest in joining Twitter.
