Twitter Is REALLY Viral

I’m sure you all know of Twitter. I’ve got a few accounts on it (actually an account per site) and I’m sure many others have it too. It is supposed to be a place where you update everyone on what you are up to right now. If you are my follower (you should be!) I’ve been tweeting this last week with the hashtag #moonfruit. Well, if you didn’t hear about it (you probably did if you use Twitter), then well, Moonfruit was giving out 10 MacBook Pros randomly to people tweeting with their hashtag.

One of the requirements of putting your name in the drawing lot was following @moontweet. When I first found out about this and tweeted my first #moonfruit, there was ~3000 followers. With the drawing part of the fun now over, @moontweet has ~43,000 followers. Yeah, a new 40,000 followers in seven damn days!

Twitter is undoubtely extremely viral. John Chow and Shoemoney has shown us. Moonfruit has shown us too. Hence, I have really stepped up my Twitter “abusing” to get something out of it.

What’s the point of this post then? To make you come back tomorrow to check out another post on Twitter. I’ll be discussing how you too can get your brand out in the Twitterverse.
