Follow me on Twitter

Posted 24 Jul 2009 - 3 Gratefully received comments

Last week I finally crumbled and signed up to Twitter. I’ve been putting it off because I felt as though it was merely the latest fad that would work itself out, and be replaced by something else as wonderfully titled. Perhaps “blather” or “waffle” would come along and stage a coup, (if any clever web developers see a future in these great names, get in touch, we could be rich!).

Now I see how foolish I’ve been, a proper twit, if you will. After just a short while I’m beginning to realise the potential in it all.

In one of my previous posts I highlighted the seclusion that freelancers sometimes feel, working alone. Twitter is another way to connect with the wider design community. This is an advantage in itself, but it breeds others.
With access to this community, you can find a wealth of information to help find solutions to your problems, to inspire you, or just raise a smile when you need it most.

There are other more selfish advantages too, it’s a nice big platform for me to promote myself, my work and my blog.
In the future I hope to interact further with my followers. I want to be able to ask for feedback or a bit of brainstorming to help me when I might be stuck.
In return I will strive to post links that might be of interest to others, be it inspirational work, or excellent articles that I find useful and insightful.

As usual, I’m far to late to the party to be labeled “fashionable” but fashion sense is over-rated. I’ll take common-sense any day.

Follow me @kreynoldsdesign and I’ll tweet you later.
