Now DM your Twitter Followers in 10000 Characters

Twitter is awesome for status updates; going to conference hall / meeting in cafeteria / come to shopping mall / let’s have lunch together this Sunday. Once built for such types of quick status updates, the microblogging website is expanding its horizons now. Nearly a month back Twitter has enabled comments with Retweets. I often felt the use of this feature while retweeting tweets from tweeters like HBR blogs and alike.


Next big thing that coming from Twitter is removal of 140 characters from DMs (Direct Messages). Come July 2015 and you will be able to DM your friends in 10000 characters reports Twitter’s Developers Blog

Twitter wants you to use it more. Status updates in 140 characters in not any less. But at times you need to switch applications when in need to write longer messages. Writing everything precisely in 140 characters in a DM to your colleagues is quite impossible especially if its something official related a project.

You can ask someone to join you in cafeteria but to question whether your friend wants black coffee or a latte is something undoable in 140 set character limits. You can not write a Latte as Late or Lat. That is way to much confusing for many.

Wait till July when you can add a Burger with a Latte!

How to get quality traffic on a single page website that converts

Single page website? Not a bad idea. May be you want to sell your products online. You can not write too much as you are too busy in creating and modifying your product. And you need to travel a lot for promotions. Outsourcing could be one of the answer but if your budget is tight then hiring a freelancer may drain your money. And writing regular blog post would be tough. In such a situation one page website can serve the purpose. It will be easy to update especially if its cms based may be like wordpress for example. Its one page website with simple product picture, detailed description, ways to order and customer review. You are not tech savvy and don't want to invest too much on website's geeky things. One page is enough for you. Its doable, but without traffic how will you generate online sales. That is the question right? I said quality traffic that converts and make your bank account numbers increase. After all you mean sales. Its a good idea that you want to focus on you...

Experiences give Learnings and these comes of Pain

 May be right, may be wrong. But not absolute rubbish. Going for the first time despite knowing perhaps I won't be able to achieve milestones as the support system is scary weak. Somewhere back and deep in the mind the thought was what I will do, then, where I will end up life. Will I succeed, if not then what will I do? Whether I will be able to make both ends meet. How will I face people at home, society, relatives and others? The struggles were endless. If I go back in memory lane I observe I met many people, I made many good friends, I got support from many teachers, I got support from many people supposedly rich in society. I met many employers. But suddenly I realized through every step in life that no one was mine. No one was my support system, that was an illusion only. As soon as people realized this guy is looking to achieve a milestone, suddenly I realized there were no friends, no well wishers, no supporters, no sympathizer. I found myself stranded in the deep seas o...
