Lotusphere on Twitter (pass this out everywhere, lets get all 8000 in here)

by Chris Miller at 11:18:00 AM on Tuesday, November 20th, 2007

In order to foster faster communication with everyone at Lotusphere, or even if you just wish to sit back and watch, there will be a Lotusphere channel you can follow and post to. Twitter is setting it up so if you set yourself to follow all the tweets, you can also post to it so everyone gets them. Talk about instant communication when not everyone can be on Sametime and there is breaking news, a vendor giving away cool stuff, when you want to find people or when a vendor has an open party. The possibilities are endless. I talked to some Loti in and around the social networking area to see if they had anything built for this, the immediate answer was they didn't think so.

I would suggest you follow me also as I have some other surprises as we take Lotusphere into a social networking exploration.

So here are the basics for all of you that are new to Twitter.

you can find me at http://twitter.com/IdoNotes

everyone should set Twitter to FOLLOW. You can follow any profile on Twitter by sending follow+username. For example, people would send:
follow Lotusphere
to Twitter from IM or phone. People can also go right to the profile page, where you can click the "follow" button located under the profile name.

People who follow the profile will be added to the list of followers; if they decide to Twitter back about the event, their updates will show in the "Lotusphere" timeline.
Via phone or chat, instruct people to send FOLLOW Lotusphere to Twitter at:

40404 for US followers
21212 for Canadian followers
+44 762 4801423 for all other international followers
You can even add Twitter to your instant messenger buddylists while there.

Awesome idea Chris, simply awesome... THis makes so much sense, (almost) neating the need to do the Lotusphere Live thing this year.

I'll be twittering too at { Link }

then follow and you can send Tweets and post to your own which will get followed by Lotusphere. Then everyone gets connected. The whole idea!

I am now following both you and Lotusphere. I can be followed, but only if you can spell AndyPedisich.

Thanks, Chris! You're always on top of things.

Oh man ... and I had JUST decided that Twitter was the one social network I didn't find any use for ... so much for THAT idea! ;-)

I'm In!

Hey Chris!! How goes it?? The one question I have, is the '40404' considered a Premium Text message? Aren't those more expensive?

It shouldn't be considered one at all. A simple 5 digit short code that they do not charge you to use like other ones.

Character Bio:

This will take far more time than I have today. I will start with I was born and still live in St. Louis, MO. Even though for a couple years I was never, ever here and always on the road, this is smack in the middle of the US. Everything is just a few hour flight. That part is nice. No beach/ocean/coast isn't the best. But with the travel I make up for it.

Looking to find me in person? Here is where I will be.
