Re: On Using Twitter
#2I was about start complaining about how an article on using twitter is posted on medium and it will have the usual discussion about the influence of social media platforms. But it is a surprisingly well written how-to document. I would suggest others to give it a glance. Most of us are probably aware of the topics discussed but i still enjoyed it.

Re: On Using Twitter
#4This article has good advice, but doesn't really help me. I actually really want to use Twitter more, but I cannot get over the fact that most of the people I find interesting post 20% interesting stuff, but 80% in-jokes, casual conversations, or memes. This is fine for the people who post once a day, but if there are 10s of them per day I get sick of it.
I don't know how I'm meant to deal with this other than just blindly trusting Twitter's algorithm of what ends up on my home feed (which I don't really want to). Maybe what I want is for Twitter to differentiate between announcement/public style posts and posts that are intended for a smaller community of followers, but that probably goes against the nature of the medium.
I hold myself responsible for this whenever I tweet something as well, but it seems like the only way to do it 100% is to make different accounts for different topics (e.g. one account for tech/programming, one for politics, and one for casual life stuff).

I am having a similar but different need.
I want multiple streams like circles from Google Plus (yes the dead Google Plus). It was the only thing I found on Google+ which is missing from all other social medias I am using.

i think twitter's model pushes people to post often, so they post more memes/political stuff which i find garbage. I wish it would keep the stuff from interesting people at the top for more days, but it s not happening.

I had the same experience, a few times I've tried to follow a few interesting accounts. It's always the same: a couple of accounts posting memes or sharing random things drown everything else. When I want to waste time with that sort of stuff I can do it more efficiently on reddit.
Re: On Using Twitter
#9One thing this article doesn't mention is that it is worth remembering Twitter has no meaning or importance on the real world. The only people who care about what happens on twitter are other people on twitter. Regular people simply don't care (nor are aware) about twitter.
Think of it like any other social network feed and try not to take it seriously.

#10> My field (#NLProc) is working to maintain fully anonymous review. In such conditions, it’s important to be careful when tweeting about work (your own or others) that is under review.
Interesting! I wasn't aware that anyone was doing double-anonymous peer review. I would love to know how that is working out.
