What Will Oprah’s First Tweet Be About?
Thursday, April 16th, 2009TechCrunch reports that Oprah will be on Twitter tomorrow posting her very first tweet LIVE on her show.
In honor of this momentous event, MomFaves will be giving away the official MomFaves Tote and T-shirt to the mom who most closely predicts what Oprah’s first tweet will be. Simply leave a comment below with your answer AND then tweet it to @MomFaves. Please include the hashtag #oprahtweets in your tweet so the conversation on Twitter can be tracked. The lucky person will be announced here Monday.
No matter how you feel about Oprah, this news marks a huge milestone for the folks who own Twitter - and they know it. Twitter CEO Evan Williams dropped this hint when he wrote this tweet yesterday, “Tomorrow just became a very big day. (Sorry for the teaser — more later.)” Today, the company is most likely doing everything possible to prepare for what could be the most new twitter traffic ever in a single day.
MomFaves is excited about the event too because of how many new moms will be introduced to Twitter and be entering the social media age as a result of Oprah’s influence. Because of Twitter, MomFaves and founders @joshunfried and @rebeccaunfried have met and tweeted with thousands of new mom friends and momfaves fans (yes, ya’ll know who you are!).
The benefits and uses of being a mom on twitter are many. Social media tools like Twitter, social networks like Facebook and (yes) even our very own mom word-of-mouth network (TM), MomFaves.com are used and enjoyed everyday by moms.
If you’re a mom who decides to join Twitter after witnessing or learning of the historic tech event tomorrow, here are Five Ways To Find Moms On Twitter.
By the way, this post and giveaway is in no way connected to or affiliated with Oprah (but you knew that already, right?).
