I'm one of the Top Influential Twitterers!

Slap me silly and call me flattered. Maybe I should say I'm Flittered. That's Flattered+Twittered. Is coining a new Twitter phrase that easy? You join Twitter, you tweet, you are in the Twitterverse, exploring the Twittersphere, and your pals are the Twitterazi or Twits. So let's see if Flittered catches on, and if it does, maybe my celebrity will grow even more!

At any rate, I'm Flittered because the Jewish Telegraph Agency, better known as JTA or in the Twitterverse as @JTANews, has named me one of the Top 50 Most Influential Jewish Twitterers! If that weren't enough, I'm shockingly ranked #5, preceded in excellence by the outstandingly awesome @YLove, of course. I'm blushing, really, I am. In the past few hours, I've had upwards of 40+ new follows. I think it's only good form to follow all the other honorees, so I'll have to get to that post-Shabbos. But right now, I have to say Yasher Koach to my fellow top 50-ers! I can't stop blushing.

@AlizaHausman, @EstherK, @yeahthatskosher, @susqhb, @hebrewzzi, @popjudaica, @diwon, @ModernTribe_Jew, @KosherWineGuy, @weinberg81, @frumsatire, @louismgreen, and @RabbiEE.

Most importantly: I can't wait to tell my rabbi. He'll be kvelling!

NOTE: For those who aren't all up in the Twitterverse, it's a micro-blogging community where your "tweets" are limited to 140 characters. You follow people, they follow you back, and it's a good way to meet new people, to microblog, to network, and more! Everyone from Ice T to Oprah to Ashton Kutcher to Barack Obama is on Twitter. Why aren't you?

Mazzal tov, Chavi! I must admit, I've not been anywhere near Twitter, but I know what it is - I don't have the time to do that properly, I know it!

ZPP said...

Why are you surprised? Anyway, Mazel Tov!!!

Suburban Sweetheart said...

So proud of you! :) OK, and technically proud of me, too (flittered!), because I started/run our office's Twitter, and we made it on the Top 10 organizations. YASHER KOACH to us both!

@Levra Thanks for commenting :) I was so surprised to see it. And Tuvia was even MORE surprised to hear you had a Twitter. We'll be more than happy to show you how it all works over Chinese food next week!

@Mottel Todah! I feel like I haven't talked to you in eons. We need to catch up.

@TMC Let's hope the rising star can land me some PT summer online work for the first part of the summer? :)

@Rachel Thanks! It is kind of time consuming to juggle everything, but it's working.

@ZPP *Blushes* Thank you!

@SS (aka the Kate-a-nator) Yasher koach on the Top 10. We are rising!
