How would I know? I’m a complete Twitterookie. (Twookie?)
Seriously, lots of smart people are extremely enthusiastic about its ability to find, attract and influence prospective customers. Today John Jantsch of Duct Tape Marketing offers a guide to Mining Leads on Twitter, focusing on utilizing Twitter’s advanced search tools.
“Advanced search is where the real data mining comes to life. It allows you to filter everything that’s being said for your keyword phases in your town, for example. Think that might be useful?”

Despite hearing a lot of hype about it, even from people I like and respect, I have been a huge Twitter skeptic. I perceived it as an enormous time-sink with little or no value, except maybe self-gratification. (No, not that kind!) That was until I finally took the time to actually visit the site yesterday. Wow, amazing people and ideas flying around there. Fun, too.
Now my problem is, how do I get any work done? Being a twit (hmm, that’s probably not the right term, is it?) is a lot more fun than actually working!
