Twitter is about to be challenged by a brand new social network platform that will officially launch next month (June). me2everyone is based in England, but plans to be made available in several different languages. Their marketing strategy is to offer stock in their company for those who sign up prior to their official launch in June.

Me2everyone boasts a feature rich platform including but not limited to the following services:

  • Version 1.5 launches in June 2009
  • It will be a great looking, 2D traditional social network
  • You will be able to chat to your friends and become more involved with shaping me2everyone
  • Upload your photos and have different ways to view them
  • Search for friends and send video emails to each other
  • You will be able to upgrade to a new business for free and start making money
  • You will be able to register your shares and finally become a part-owner of me2everyone
  • You will be able to decide the types of advertisers who support me2everyone – we start with Adobe,Yahoo! Skype, Lastminute.com and Swiss Airlines with many more to follow…

Version 1.5 gives you many of the features you expect from the giants in the world-wide-web but later this year version 2.0 arrives and it starts to re-define the way we use the web. me2everyone will evolve to combine fun, communication, real-world business, education, local search in a clever graphical way that makes the web feel brand new all over again.

It is yet to be seen how popular me2everyone will ultimately be, but I would reccomend getting a FREE position which would place you in the category of the 1st million sign-ups.

Who knows, me2everyone may be the next BIG social network?

Twitterin, how to get Retweeted!

If you have used Twitter for any length of time, you have discovered that not all tweets are created equal. You try to be interesting with the subject matter of your tweets, but you notice that your efforts very seldom pay off with your fellow tweeters. In other words, it appears that your tweets are not retweet worthy.

Hey, you’re tweets are really not that bad. You  just have not discovered certain requirements for making your tweet worthy of a ‘retweet’. If you will follow these three suggestions, you might discover a different outcome for your tweets.

1)What’s your handle (tweet name)? Remember, the longer your username, the less space there is to retweet. When people retweet, they typically format it as “RT @username: your tweet here.” So if you want to get retweeted, make sure you’ve chosen a nice, short Twitter username, so there’s more room for thing to get retweeted over and over again.

2)The Length of your Tweet. Again, like 1) above, size matters. If you want to get retweeted often, make sure you leave a lot of space in your tweet. Typically you should leave (5 + username length) characters free in your tweet. That’ll make it much easier to get retweeted, since users won’t have to edit your tweet in order to retweet you.

3)Time of Day. If you really want to get retweeted, you need to determine when your target audience is most likely to be sitting in front of their twitter accounts. If you tweeting in the middle of the night when everyone is sleeping, your tweets will not get a lot of exposure. On the other hand, if you’re posting at peak hours, you’re much more likely to see your tweets get retweeted. There are different apps that will help you discover what are the peak hours for connecting to your fellow tweeter friends.

If this article is helpful, please share your comments and hey, you might even want to retweet? :-)

Twitter is a social networking service that has connected millions of people across the world. Twiter was launched in March 2006 and to date it has over 15 million registered users.Twiter  has become the most famous service in such a short amount of time. It provides all the user friendly services to its users.

A person can start twittering by registering himself on the Twitter website. It is a very easy process after which you will enjoy all the services of Twitter. You can send messages to your friends. You can invite people to become your friends and you can become friends of any person in just a matter of seconds.

Twitter uses two terms for its users. One is “followers”, which are the users who will receive all the updates of the messages that you will add to your account and the other is “following”, which are the users that you are following and you will receive all the updates of the messages they are adding to their accounts.

Such a smart piece of application is Twitter. Go ahead and start Twittering!
