I was interviewed for Tweet Magazine recently by Desi Velikova.
Here’s a teaser…
Tell us what “success on Twitter” means to you?
I think success on Twitter is the same as success in life. It’s never the equivalent of how many followers you have. It’s the how much substance you offer. It’s the measure of how much of a unique individual you are. It’s how strongly you can stand in the stream of popular opinion and still express something contrary because it’s true for you. Success is being on Twitter when you want to be on Twitter and being off Twitter when you want or need to be off. It’s enjoying Twitter when you are on it, and not missing it when you are away. It’s enjoying Twitter to the fullest in as many ways as possible, and still being able to have a life outside of Twitter. It’s knowing that you would still be you and would still behave the same way even if Twitter did not exist. It’s seeing Twitter for the wonderful interpersonal communication tool that it is without deifying it or the people on it.
