10 years ago as a fresh and new marketing assistant, I spent hours perusing book stores in search of the "Wow" marketing books that would make me successful. Books were paged through as I read a little here and a little there then quickly signed up for college.
10 years later I find myself laughing at the world of marketing today. Although many books must have said "the future will be different, look ahead!", I don't think any of them said there would be a site called Twitter that changes the travel of education.
Just recently have I joined the Twitter brigade as I'm fumbling to catch up and figure out how tweeting works. But today I was amazed as my follower count grew and I began to notice how quickly informational resources, blogs, success stories and quotes were flown around the online portal.
At first I was amazed at how easy and quick I could find cool posts, blogs, articles...I later realized I'd learned nothing! Skimming through posts and blogs, aka Tweets, I noticed I wasn't retaining any real hard data. Everyone wants to boast "10 ways to do this" or "10 ways to do that" which to me simply equaled a whole lot of opinions about nothing.
I'm going to continue to dive into the Twitter world but am no where near ready to abandon my faithful bookshelf. To be continued...
