The Mobile Industry outed on Twitter!
I’ve previously mentioned that Twitter is a great tool for staying in touch with Mobile industry professionals. I follow many people in the mobile industry in Australia and around the world, and stay up to date with what they’re doing on a day to day basis. By following these people I find Twitter to be a great resource for sharing information, building relationships, asking questions and hearing industry news the moment it happens.
The value of twitter is entirely dependent on the quality of the people you follow, so I’ve listed a few of the mobile industry twitterers that I follow below. It’s not all of them by any stretch, and there are plenty more digital, advertising & online superstars that are well worth following on top of this bunch.

A few tips for new twitterers.
- Go to http://twitter.com to sign up, or click on any the links above to see a profile. Some people have private profiles so you’ll have to request to follow them before you can see their posts. Use your real name as your Twitter ID. If you want to build real relationships with real people, it’s better if they know who you are.
- Put some info in your profile so twitterers can research you and decide to follow. I suggest a one sentence bio and a link to a URL such as your blog, website or linkedin.
- use the @ symbol to speak directly to a person publicly eg. “@emilyfreeman i like your blog”
- use ‘d’ to send a private direct message eg. “d emilyfreeman secret info”
- Don’t forget to introduce yourself when you first follow someone eg. “@emilyfreeman introducing myself, I’m an account manager in a Melbourne agency”
- Watch and learn, and make a few posts before you follow people. I like to check out new followers straight away but if they’ve posted nothing yet I don’t know if I want to follow them back.
- Leave your profile as public to begin with – noone will request access to a private profile you if they don’t know what you’re posting about!
Good luck and happy twittering!
Great list! I picked up a couple of new ones. Thanks for putting it together Emily. And I’ll send through that $50 for mentioning me
Does that mean i have to stop being funny and start acting all professional on Twitter now
– probably a good thing, i am not that funny anyway.
Emily – great list thanks. Mobile SEO expert (just put the pressure on!) No seriously – thanks. Also @gomonews is just an RSS feed of all news stories if my going ons are too boring… thanks again, Bena.
Thanks u r information
Hi, good post. I have been wondering about this issue,so thanks for posting.
Thanks Em. Great list and only just discovered it now!
Great list Em!
Love the new Mobilista look and feel too.
Excellent post however , I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this topic?
I’d be very grateful if you could elaborate a little bit further. Kudos!
My own theory is that Paul may have convinced Romney to
establish another Gold Commission like the one Ronald Reagan set up in 1982 to examine
whether the U.S. Everyone who has seen it can’t believe it’s the same place,
including my son who spent years working on cars in there. Porter had these guys
working their asses off to win balls back in the attacking
third, tracking back hard into their own half, all in support of
re-establishing possession to attack once again. Winding the “paddle” into a spiral.
