Finally, I have gotten around to adding a Twitter account to Blogussion. I think it is one of those things to do for a little more reader connection, and that’s cool with me.

It is my belief that you should follow any one who follows you, and that’s what we will be doing with the @Blogussion Twitter account. I feel like we can really take the discussion up a few notches with this Twitter account finally set up, so hit us up whenever if you have any questions, or just want to talk to us.

So some of the other things I want to add that will hopefully increase the incentive for you guys to follow us and spread the word about our account to all of your friends are:

Get Updated When We Update Our Blog

Whenever Janith or I write a post, a link to it will automatically be posted on the Twitter account. I don’t know if the Twitter feed app we use updates faster than some RSS readers, but we’ll just have to see then.

Get Posts From Other Blogs

Yeah, we will be linking to other blogs on Twitter. We want to provide you with other insights on blogging topics from other great blogging blogs like Blogging Tips (they also just set up their Twitter account @BloggingTipsCom), How To Make My Blog (@HowToMakeMyBlog), Blogsessive (@Blogsessive), and some others.

Like one of the amazing quotes in our sidebar says:

Link to your enemies. Link to your competitors. Link to everyone. Instead of being sticky, be linky

Fun Facts/Blogging Tips in 140 Characters

So we don’t seem to be like all we do is link to stuff, we will post some blogging tips on Twitter in 140 characters or less. Little “Quick Tips” I guess you could call them.

We WANT to Talk to You

Seriously, we aren’t going to be the typical blogging news feed! Send us some @messages and we will talk to you. We can discuss blogging, answer questions, take post requests, anything blogging related really.

Hope you follow us guys, we want to build a really cool blogging resource. Remember, we will follow you back if you follow us!

TeenProBlogger + KolaKube = Blogussion

Janith — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 20:21:52 +0000

Firstly, Welcome to Blogussion!

I just wanted to take the time to make an “official post” about our joint venture. Alex and myself thought that the saying “two heads are better than one” was more than just a merely fancy idiom. So, we decided to ‘fuse’ TeenProBlogger (formerly maintained by me) and KolaKube (formerly maintained by Alex) to form Blogussion!

We had similar interests, in pretty much the same niches so this couldn’t have been better. Already we are finding that things the other doesn’t know, the other is an expert in. This is starting to look like a promising potential and Blogussion will take the Blogoshpere by storm!

The join means nothing when it comes to content writing, we will still maintain the same styles as per usual. This will allow our previous readers to still follow us, just that two editors provide a wider perspective and eventually better knowledge!

We hope you can join us early in our efforts to become the ultimate blog about blogging on the internet!

With Warm Regards,

Blogussion Duo Editors.
