Apparently, you can pin your most important Tweet

20 Comments Posted by Harry Scriven on 27 November 2015

Recently, I keep being hit with one particular television advertisement promoting life skills to young adults. The advice from the advertisement is that you can pin a Tweet to the top of your Twitter account page. This is so that pre-job interview your prospective employers browsing your social media output are greeted with your most respectful Tweet rather than the tale of last night’s drinking extravaganza.

I think that pinning posts and pinning Tweets to the top of your profile can be dangerous as sometimes people tend to pin a post that maybe…well…they shouldn’t.

However, when a good choice is made regarding the post that is pinned your social media presence can be dramatically enhanced. First impressions count for so much sometimes.

So, maybe I should pin a Tweet to help attract the kind of Twitter friends that I crave.

I looked through my own account and wondered if there is one Tweet that I would like to be known by.

Well, my Tweets are a mixture of the frivolous and the serious and there is no one Tweet which captures both of these themes.

After careful examination of my four years of Twitter output, I came to the conclusion that there isn’t one Tweet that I would like to be known by nor is there one Tweet that I’m ashamed of.

I’ve littered this post with a few screenshots of my Tweets. Maybe, you can see a Tweet that I should be ashamed of or maybe you see one that you think should be my pinned Tweet.

  I have been following you on Twitter. You don’t Tweet, it’s true. You say that you are a zoo keeper! 😉

    I don’t really use twitter. I only use my twitter account to automatically link my blog post. 😉
    - Harry...the Man! 28 November 2015 at 15:41
      I use Twitter for that, too.
      
      There are some odd trends on Twitter. Well, never anything I’m too interested in.

        I do some lurking sometimes, and I found many old My-Opera users using it.
        
        Maybe I’ll try using it in the future. 😉

Not a big twitter fan myself but it has its uses. About following you now…
- Harry...the Man! 28 November 2015 at 20:46
  People do go a bit mad on Twitter. Sometimes it’s good for a one line wisecrack or to follow an organisation that interests.
  - AlluringEby 28 November 2015 at 20:53
    I sure do follow some interesting organisations and individuals.
    - Harry...the Man! 28 November 2015 at 20:58
      I bet you do. If you want to look me up there I’m @Harry_Scriven.
      - AlluringEby 28 November 2015 at 21:29
        Following you already

Haha…all of my friends have Twitter and Instagram accounts. But I don’t have… 😀
- Harry...the Man! 30 November 2015 at 13:40
  I’m not an Instagram person. Why would the whole world want to stare at photos of me?
  - ~~ emzlee :) 30 November 2015 at 14:18
    That’s what I thought, too.
