Do You Have #TweetCred?
Most of us have heard the expression “street cred” in regard to what one’s peers think about a person. My twist on that is what is your #TweetCred? You see, we live in a 140-character world that is filled with abbreviations, emoticons and my personal favorite—and old reliable—LOL.
So, in an instantaneous, I want it now world that has a short attention span...what do you do? First, you use the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) model. Our communications are designed to convey our thoughts to others. However, such thoughts are ineffective unless the audience understands the message that you are trying to present. So KISS (not me) if you desire to have #StreetCred.
