Ok, people have been aksing: what the heck happened to #140 Chat? Two words: Top Gear. But the #140Chat series is back with the amazing @zoeyjordan, a must-have Twitter profile for your stream.
me: Ok Chatting today with the fabulous Zoey Jordan, one of my faves here on Twitter. What is up?
zoeyjordan: Thrilled to be tweeting/chatting with my brother from another mother.
me: Ha! Ok, first question. Is Twitter still fun for you?
zoeyjordan: Hmmm. The novelty has worn a bit, but I’ve made great connects. So…yes
me: Say more about the novelty wearing out? Is it getting too uncool for someone as hip as you?
zoeyjordan: Duh. LOL! What I mean is at first – it was like – wow, you can talk to hundreds of peeps all at once.
Now, 2.5 years later, I take more time to engage, even tho the tweet stream is fuller.
me: Yeah, it seems like the engagement aspect is getting deeper and we are all forming our own little niches
zoeyjordan: The posse expands, so to speak
me: So if you could run Twitter for a day, what would you do?
zoeyjordan: Delete the bots, spammers, and anyone who posts more than 10 self promoting links a day.
me: Ha! Maybe you can come up with a service that executes those profiles. Do you find yourself calling out the spammers more or do you just ignore them? (FYI: I am the host so I can use more than 140 characters)
zoeyjordan: Damn you. I usually report for spam if thats what it is. If it’s someone who is annoying? Just unfollow.
me: I am a very provocative Twitter host. Yeah, unfollow and block always work. Ok, just a few more questions.
If you could follow just three Twitter profiles and that’s it (excluding me), who would they be and why?
Take your time
And expand
zoeyjordan: Wow. That’s a loaded question…I don’t wanna kiss anyone’s arse either. Hmmm.
me: Ha!
zoeyjordan: One would have to be @GiniDietrich b/c she is a CEO that gets it. Introduces peeps, shares great content. Luv her
me: 1
zoeyjordan: Okay #2 would be @NancyMyrland She shares, shares, shares. Very kind + relevant info
me: 2
Both good choices btw and you are not kissing arse just being smart
zoeyjordan: So far so good…
zoeyjordan: Third would be (drumroll) @teeco71 b/c he is just so dang positive and shares links I always click on
me: Nice
Ok, last question: 2011 for @zoeyjordan will involve _____?
zoeyjordan: Hopefully: 12 months. Um, business expansion, adopting a dog, and lots of excitement.
me: Sounds like a beer commercial! LMAO!
zoeyjordan: Or a country song
me: We luv ya! Thanks for the 140Chat
zoeyjordan: You betcha!
Zoey, I think you misunderstood Julio’s question. He asked if you could follow just three twitter profiles, who would they be? Take your time (@kevinvandever), remove thoughts of all other things (@kevinvandever) and give this question some serious thought before answering (@kevinvandever).
Ha!!!! Now that is witty. Can you send that to Top Gear?
