Recently I wrote a really great post about how to link your blog to Twitter. Today I wanted to talk a little on why you should use Twitter. Right now Twitter is a very young site, I think its powerful now but its future will be much stronger. A few months ago it was hard to say why people should use it. Take a look at my company's Twitter page - OptiLaw.
Take a look at a few firms that I'm following. Most of them have a really awesome icon that I made. When you click on a firm you will see a cool background and their contact info, etc, etc. Right now I'm using it as an extension to their blogs. I encourage my clients to blog about their areas of practice. Twitter then takes that information and passes it on to another network. That is the most powerful thing right now, taking your hard work and getting more out of it. Now that was a few months ago. Recently Google announced Twitter in search results, see the video here or read the announcement.
So now your Tweets could actually be in Google's web results. Isn't that our main goal? Pretty exciting.
