Feedback On My Little Twitter Idea

Thanks, Everyone, For The Good Ideas

Your messages (condensed) RE: My Little Twitter Idea:

1. Twitter works because we like little things.  So, you're saying: highlight the big little.

2. Agree.  Problem with FB and other platforms is: not succinct like Twitter.

3. Use "Favorite" and "Hashtag" instead of adding "Ranking" and "Community"

That first response wraps it up in a nutshell.  Twitter works because it minimizes.  But if it also promoted those best at Tweeting, it would be a much deeper medium.

The second response underlines: Why Twitter?  Why not look to FB or other media?  Answer: shorten 'er 'n' link, Capt'n.

The third response is tempting.  Within each hashtag, who has the most favorites (hearts)?  But hashtags are also used for irony, jokes and afterthoughts.  And fans would litter twitter with obligatory faves.  So, limit it: your favorite five Twitterati in each of five communities.

Update: 2/26/16:  I've revised my original Little Twitter idea to mesh 'Communities' with existing 'Hashtags'.

Update: 3/24/16: I've incorporated a commenter's idea (rank users, but based on the number of followers they have).  This idea wouldn't work, because of all the fake accounts, unless... the only followers who were counted were those who had submitted at least one top-5 ranking.

I will tie this all up in a subsequent post.
