I just tweeted “I’m going on an experiment. Want to follow along and join me? For the next three days, I’m going to be seeing if I can earn $2000 to pay off a student loan I have. I’m live-blogging my entire process, here.” It was the first tweet.
Twitter said that I could reach more if I pay. It suggested $500, to reach 130k people. I don’t think I need to spend that much money for that, and it also only said I could reach Canada, Quebec, or Montreal people. Screw that. I’ll see if my local networks are interested, first.
I need a few things:
I just renamed this post to ‘The First Tweet’ from ‘Launching’. I’ll need to remember to name sections appropriately.
Ok, those first two things are done. Let’s start using post-mortems to do this sort of thing.
Oh, shoot, I never schedule the second post. Let’s do that now.
