Twitter Directories for Networking

If you’re twittering and you know it, clap your hands, “clap, clap.”

Now that the song is stuck in both our heads, I will commence with the skinny on how-to use Twitter directories to help build your professional network. Nowadays, Twitter is the “it” site for microsharing. Businesses are utilizing the popular social networking platform to improve internal communications, to bolster corporate relationships, for professional development, to mentor their community, to increase intelligence, and to create opportunities for collaborations, real-time think tanks and increase their productivity.

Social based flow communities such as Twitter are pioneering the new wave of business collaboration, networking and community building. It would behoove anyone to catch the wave now and ride on into this exciting new evolution of microsharing. Whether you are a major corporation or a self-employed freelancer, something to consider is ‘intelligent befriending.” A great resource for finding like-minded people to link up with is via Twitter directories. These directories allow you to either find friends in your niche area of interest or to list your own twitter profile so you can be found.

Twitter directories work as wonderful starting place to gather up your online tribe and to advertise your wares online. A prevalent problem with sharing all of your awesome content online is the inability to get your voice heard among al of the senseless clamoring. But there are tools and platforms available for free which enable you to find and be found! A few directories worth checking out are Just Tweet It, Twello, and TwitDir:

Just Tweet It: A user directory for Twitter, organized by genres to allow users to find other Twitter users to connect with. JustTweetIt allows users to add their name, an avatar and a small bio in multiple categories.

Twello: A Twitter search engine, a search directory of people by area of expertise, professional or other attributes listed in personal profiles on Twitter. There is a ton of information on Twello and well worthy of spending a few hours seeking out Twitter peeps and listing up.

TwitDir: A Twitter directory that allows users to type in keywords or phrases and search within Twitter usernames, descriptions, locations and everywhere. While you are on TwitDir, check out their lists: Top 100 followed, Top 100 Updates, Top 100 Favorites, and Top 100 Followers. They are quite amusing.

Lastly, if you’re looking to friend up a creative writer self-professed social media junkie, add me as a friend. I promise I won’t bite.
