I Want A Better Twitter Experience

March 31, 2014 By Jeff Turner 2 Comments

Last week I wrote a brief “history” of my relationship with Twitter over the past seven years. As a result, I let myself meander down memory lane a bit on and recall what Twitter “felt” like back in 2007.

I’m Going To Inman Connect Without Social Media

January 14, 2013 By Jeff Turner 17 Comments

I’ll be in New York for Inman Connect this week, but I’ll be leaving most of social media behind. On December 8th, 2012, I tweeted, “Twitter off. I might be back Monday. We’ll see. :)” I needed a break to get some distance and perhaps gain some perspective on why I use Twitter. And except […]
