28 Apr 09 Twitter followers
Since I bought Peter Drew’s Twitter software, I have been using it gently. In other words, I’m a bit scared to let it run amok, especially as I am starting to see some benefits from meeting piles of new people all at once. I have found an extra 1,000 people to follow and, so far, about half of them are following me back. I’ve also started up some direct conversations with some of the people – I really like the direct messaging feature of twitter because that’s where the real benefit lies.
I haven’t tried the “unfollow” bit of the software yet – I think I’ll leave it for a few days before doing that because people seem to be drifting in and following me at all sorts of random times. I think it’s good to apply a bit of patience to the program.
So far, I’d give the twitter program a healthy 8 out of 10 – and may revise this in the course of the next couple of weeks.

21 Apr 09 Do you get Twitter?
My head’s swimming from information overload – apparently the next hot thing is twitter; actually, it seems to me that it’s currently really hot because Oprah’s just joined the Twitter crowd.
I have been a twitter user for some time and built up a small band of followers – and I’m following some cool people too. I tweet occasionally – and also add my aweber mailing list to my twitter account so that when I update my mailing list or make a broadcast, then it’s on twitter too.
Today I decided to try an experiment with a new bit of software from Peter Drew – which supposedly increases your twitter follower count dramatically. I’ve done the download and installed the software – it’s working away in the background as I write this.
There’s a five day trial of the software before it becomes a recurring billing situation – so I’m hoping to see some benefits of this before the full membership features kick in.
I’ll make a full report here of how I get on. I have to say that there is a bit of me that is scared of losing what I have already achieved, so I might end up baling out before it gets going properly. We’ll see!
Anyway, in case you want to see the full offer from Pete – you can find it at Brute Force Social Media
I’m looking forward to seeing your comments too!
