Answers to 11 Questions You've Been Dying to Ask About Twitter. As a concept, using Twitter seems simple. You need to say what you want to say in fewer than 140 characters ... and that's about it. Who would think that writing a sentence or two and sharing it with people who want to hear from you would be that hard?

And then you actually start using Twitter -- it's harder than you thought. As you're trying to build your business on the social network, little questions and concerns start cropping up. Besides going through trial and error, how are you supposed to figure this all out? We know it's daunting to get started on Twitter and try to build your company on the platform, and we want to help. In preparation for the webinar -- and to get you more acquainted with some intricacies of the social network -- we thought it'd be a great idea to answer some of the most frequent questions we hear asked about Twitter. Read on below to finally get the answers you've been searching for, and be sure to join us for the webinar!

The short answer is: It depends. The speed of the feed: Facebook’s real problem. Facebook admitted in their Q3 earnings call what many of us have been saying for months: Teens are bored with Facebook and not using it as much. What they have yet to admit is that a lot of people of all ages are bored with Facebook. As I travel the country, speaking with my clients and giving presentations, I often ask the audience if they find Facebook less interesting than they did 6 months ago. The answer is nearly universally a yes. But why? Is it the ads, which Facebook acknowledges are 1 in 20 posts? And it’s easy for Facebook to fix. It will make users happier. It will make brands happier. It will make Facebook more money. The answer? There’s a lot brands can do to enhance their Facebook marketing but the decline we saw in December had no correlation to the performance of that page prior to the algorithm change. If Facebook were to speed up the feed, showing me and all its other users more content (as they used to), it would make Facebook seem more alive and dynamic (as it used to).

GigaOm described what sources have been saying: Well-placed sources tell us that the company is gearing up to launch new private messaging features inside its still red-hot photo and video sharing service.

Is Snapchat right for your brand? Snapchat, the equally popular and controversial photo-sharing site, has edged out Facebook in being the most frequently used platform to upload photos. Out of 809m daily photo uploads in November 2013 so far, Snapchat has a 49% share (accounting for approximately 400m daily uploads), with Facebook now at 43%. This 400m figure has grown from the reported 350m in September 2013 and a previous figure of 200m in June 2013. It should be noted that Facebook actually owns Instagram, which currently holds a separate 7% share of the pie, so combined they have a 50% share.

That not withstanding, this is an incredible success for Snapchat. What does this mean for brands? Our own David Moth reported a couple of months ago on seven brands that have jumped on the Snapchat bandwagon. Personally I think it’s a social network too far and that brands should leave it well alone, but marketers will always want to follow their consumers and jump on-board with trendy new apps.

Twitter recently went public and the news has created quite the buzz in the marketing, advertising, and social media industries. This blog post will explore a few areas we think may change as a result of the initial public offering and how that will affect brands in the social space.
