I started my twitter account (NoWhackTracks) last weekend for my social media project. I had never really seen the point of having a twitter account. It seemed to be just another facebook status outlet. However, twitter is also a cool way to share information with a wide variety of people and actually have the chance to connect with them.
My twitter is dedicated to music and is genre specific for each day of the week:
Monday Mashups
Tuesday Hip Hop
Wednesday Rock
Thursday Techno
Friday Reggae
and the weekends are "Throwback" in which I tweet a variety of music from different years and genres.
Each day is not labeled or constrained by specifics of the genres but is rather an attempt to dissect the genres and various sub genres of the music. I also see it as an outlet to promote various music tastes, news, and industries.
So far since launching my page I have only one follower. I am slowly learning how to attract people with my tweets, but have been unsuccessful so far. My plan is to find an up and coming band who has twitter and find ways to connect them to more people.
