Creative State – Web Design and Graphic Design Edinburgh Leeds UK

Having managed to feign interest for a while I’ve been reading up on Twitter and other social networking tools in order to better understand the hype. The result is I’m pretty much blown away by this free social messaging utility and ashamed to admit that it’s taken me months to set up an account and start “tweeting”.

In the past I’ve occasionally wanted to write a short blog, or share a brief piece of news, rather than write a full account of my findings covering the what, why and where. Twitter fills this gap and I’m looking forward to using it to update my Facebook status and Twitter feed on our newly launched website. It’s exciting to know that with just one post or text I can update people on recent graphic and website design findings, or simply recommend tools that can help them in the business.

What’s interesting about this utility is that I had originally steered clear of it for fear of being interrupted by mundane messages. The great thing is you can stop following at any time, and you can even set quiet times on Twitter so you’re not interrupted.

Having only used the tool for business purposes for just a matter of days I’m yet to discover the true benefits to Creative State, however others have explained the benefits of posting questions and getting the answers you want right away and I hope I can make good use of Twitter to help others too.
