I've been on Twitter 10 months - so 1,000 a month average (and there were two months where I was hardly on at all). Matt - you're welcome. #Icarethatmuch Alysson

22,000 tweets? how long you been doing this? I’ve been on Twitter 10 months – so 1,000 a month average (and there were two months where I was hardly on at all).

Matt – you’re welcome. #Icarethatmuch

The pros column on using Twitter is miles longer than the cons column, for sure. I've managed to build rapport and relationships with kick ass people via Twitter that I'd never had the chance to meet any other way. Hooray for Twitter's ability to bring like-minded people together! :) Getting to know you better is definitely a Twitter highlight for the year and I'm very much looking forward to hanging out with you in real life one of these days. Sarcasm and snark FTW! ;) I couldn’t agree more, Alan. The pros column on using Twitter is miles longer than the cons column, for sure.

I had so many examples it was painful having to pick just a few. As a result, I'm now going to have to write another article for the New Year just to appease my codependent twitter family. Sharon,

That's okay - I appreciate the holiday gesture. Arnie,

We check our analytics periodically (just like you are supposed to) and although the Twitter & FB traffic have very low conversion rates (compared to natural search) we have received some business nonetheless. What we have actually found is that social media works real well to promote content & webinars and there is no doubt we have obtained good business from those sources. But it's not all about revenuw, it can be great fun too. Glad we met - and wish you a wonderful holiday season! Alan, good job.

Besides - I thought the concept you put forth was brilliant - one that should be adapted by more guys. Brent,
