Twitter is a new kind of Internet social networking that allows people to send short (only 140 characters) messages to their “followers”. We here at the Beauty Brains have been experimenting with twitter and if you’re interested, you can follow us by clicking on the picture below.
Why Use Twitter?
What are the benefits of following?
Good question. Here are a few reasons from our collective tweeting Beauty Brains.
1. Source of beauty news that might not make the blog.
2. Take a peek at the daily lives of the Brains
3. Learn who the Beauty Brains learn from
4. Get sneak peeks to the Beauty Science and BS polls
5. Hear about upcoming Beauty Brains answers
6. Talk directly to the Beauty Brains
7. Influence the questions answered by the Beauty Brains
8. Potentially get questions answered more quickly
9. It’s just darn fun!
So, start following the Beauty Brains here. Twitter could change your life.
Beauty Tweeters and How to Get on the List
And if you want to keep tabs on everything going on in the beauty world, here is a useful list of our fellow Beauty Tweeters. If you want to be included just leave a comment with your Twitter “handle” for everyone else to see.
The only qualification for being on the list is a connection with the beauty industry, so if you’re a cosmetic chemist, beauty blogger, just love to write about beauty products, or whatever, let us know.
