From the start, I’ve advocated connecting with people on multiple networks to find where they like to interact and increase the odds of having a meaningful conversation.
I wound up on Twitter back in 2007 when I found that those I wanted to network with were there. While I ended up working with @CoachDeb on the first book on Twitter, I’ve never been an advocate for “hanging out” on one favorite web site. After all, we are doing this to talk to people.
When I started building my social media network, I’d got to blogs, web sties, email address books and in person meet ups to find the right connection. Today, I use tools like Gist, Rapportive.com and now HoeverMe
The tools change, but one thing stays the same… most people welcome hearing from you when you talk about what they are interested in, share what they are promoting with your network and add value to their conversations wherever they are having that conversation.
