What do these things have in common? THE VALUE OF
SOCIAL
THE PAYOFF OF BEING SOCIAL
Simple is good Twitter as a filter
Share to receive A place for multiple personas Being open vs. way too open Death by sarcasm CONFESSIONS OF A TWITTER-ER (...ER?)
Investing time for attention Why give things away?
The expert perception Be humorous (human even), off topic You are what and how you write Comments: asset or liability? LONG-FORM SOCIAL (BLOGS, ARTICLES)
