Using Twitter For Research
Twitter can be a great research tool. You can use the search at http://search.twitter.com to find the latest tweets on any topic you wish.
This can be a great way to keep track of new things happening on any topic.
You can use these for…
- Topics you blog about
- Products you own
- Your own name and business name
- Anything else you may need or want to track including your competition
Lets say I wanted to know what is said about my business.
I could go to Twitter Search and type in Mozak Design. Then I could click on “Feed for this Query”, grab the url, and add it to my preferred feed reader. Each search you preform generates a feed that you can add to your favorite feed reader and automatically see all the new things happening on Twitter for that topic.
I recommend at the minimum that you follow your name your business’ name.
Yes if someone replies using @mozakdesign it will show on my Twitter time line but if someone just uses the name Mozak Design in a tweet it won’t show up unless I am following them. It is always nice to know when someone is saying something good and even more important to know if it is bad.
