Social Networks: Males vs Females
Study shows that on non-geek social networks, females represent the majority. You could argue that this is according to the world population ratio, but I’m not sure that would be correct.
On the other hand, on ‘geeky’ social networks/sites the audience is predominantly males. Communication (females) vs geekness (males)?
Following 100 experiment
I want to use Twitter only to share knowledge, experience and for conversation. If you are looking to connect with me, let’s do it on Facebook.
That’s the reason why I will start a new experiment on Twitter which I call “Following 100”. Starting from this week, I will follow every Friday one person and I will make public the reason why. This will last until I have 100 persons in my following list. Then, I will continue to follow new persons every week, but every time I do it, I will give up on following someone who I believe is helping me less than the new followed one.
It means that in a while all people that I follow will be a real source of knowledge for me and my followers.
And about conversations… It’s interesting that you can start a public conversation with someone on Twitter without even following that person, but only searching for topics that you are interested in, in my case entrepreneurship, investment, start-ups, dreams, business, photography, wine, tango….
Now this is indeed an interesting experiment. Continuous and incremental improvement of your social graph without the risk of getting spammed. But I bet, Vlad will find more than 100 very interesting people.
