Twitter Applications – Follow Friday
Ever since the brilliant idea of #FollowFriday came upon Micah Baldwin, it has become a tradition to endorse your friends every Friday. But if you have thousands of followers you will have to select a handful of them every Friday and mention them in your #FollowFriday endorsements.
Like many others, I prepare a manual list every week (from Friday through Thursday) on the basis of tweeples who:
- engaged in conversation with me,
- recommended me,
- mentioned me,
- RT’ed me,
- favorited me,
- listed me,
- wrote comments on my blog posts,
- shared, retweeted or promoted my website and/or blog.
I am grateful to them for their kind gestures, and #FollowFriday gives me an opportunity to say thank you.
But if you are tired of manually maintaining a list and inputting names for #FollowFriday tweets, the good news is there are twitter applications that would do the same for you.
The Twitter Tag Project’s Follow Friday is one such twitter application.
How it Works
- Type in your twitter username.
- The engine will scan the last 200 tweets, count the dups, and return your most active friends.
- The results will display:
#FollowFriday @friend1 @friend2 @friend3 @friend4…

I visited the site, typed in my Twitter Username, and got the following results that I am fully satisfied with:

While there may be social aspects to any medium (e.g. links to share an article by email), social media typically refers to those media whose major functions are oriented toward sharing of information, and consequently most of the information on such media are generated by users. Common examples of social media sites are Twitter and Facebook.
Social media marketing is the process of promoting your site or business through social media channels.
