This is the fifth day of our experiment to see how we can build up a Twitter account and make it do interesting things. Here's where we are now:
455 following, 93 followers, 134 tweets.
The following:follower ratio is 4.5:1, which is high, but par for the course at this stage. I spent a few minutes looking at the tweets that twitterfeed is generating for Neuro Now. There were a few tweets that were junk, so I removed them, but the general quality is good enough for now. This setup will continue to send between ten and twenty tweets a day.
NeuroNow shows up in the sixth position in Google search. Google really ranks tweets up there! I used Googles SearchWiki to push NeuroNow to the top for me. Google seems to take SearchWiki changes seriously - lets see what happens.
There's some kind of Neuro Now group at Johns Hopkins, which is normally #1. We'll check back next week.
Have received 25 direct messages so far - sometimes but not always a sign of Twitter spam. Reviewed these Twitter followers and removed a few egregious spammers, but the rest weren't bad.
I reviewed the settings for TweetAdder; no changes today, but I'll probably make TweetAdder a little more aggressive once we get comfortably over 100 followers.
