Twitter, New “Collections” And Consumers


Wanderin Poet's avatarWanderinPoet

Everyone involved with Social Media knows that nice imagery with your posts drives engagement.

Twitter, in seeking ways to monetize is launching “Collections”, which is, “a Pinterest-style sharing board curated by brands or celebrities, which also features a buy button.”

The question for me is why would a consumer use twitter’s Pinterest lookalike when Twitter doesn’t allow their normal consumer to have their own “collection” of curated material like Pinterest does now.

Twitter needs to innovate, and not simply become another Pinterest.

One way to do so is to allow modular timelines, which makes people’s lists into a sort of collection, perhaps combine tweetdeck functionality into the standard timeline.

In this way you could have your main feed, and selected “collection” of your curated content easily available for viewing.

The virtual mall idea doesn’t work so great when regular consumers want the same tools and access that celebrities and brands get.

TPP disclaimer


MtRainierViaCellPhone

At this moment, I would like to add my disclaimer to all information posted by me from other resources re:TPP or any other information tracking Trade Policies negatively toward or against President Barack Obama.  We all should know there is no TPP deal yet, so, be aware that we are hearing what Pundits and Politicians want us to hear.  I do not support the negative behavior by progressives or those holding seats in either Chamber of Congress re:TPP who seem to believe they can talk down or disrespect the POTUS on any Trade Policy.   I believe the Democratic Party and members of Congress in both Chambers should be a part of Trade Policy Solutions for the 21st Century! STOP the fear mongering and shoving the horrors of NAFTA at us like it’s what POTUS wants! This President has spoken on 21st Century living, telling voters that being out in front instead of letting others lead us is best  ~~~  NAFTA was at least 30 years ago.
