As you know, I just began using Twitter in May of this year. By using Twitter on a regular basis, I have been able to connect to my blogging buddies, I can get news quicker than any website, and take part in cool projects and contests. I recently posted about my awesome consolation prize after entering a Twitter contest for @illyissmo (seen here). Now I’m posting about another cool contest that I entered and won through Mimi Boutique (@mimiboutique).
I won a $25 gift certificate towards any purchase by responding to a request to Tweet a favorite piece of jewelry from Mimi Boutique’s jewelry section. After I made my choice of the Koi Fish Tattoo Leather Cuff (which can be purchased here), I placed my order and it came pretty quickly. It also arrived with a lovely note. I love it and have worn it everyday since I received it. Thank you Mimi Boutique!
So if you aren’t on Twitter, get on it soon and join in the conversations. You never know what cool thing can happen next!
I’m on Twitter, but I rarely use it. Unfortunately, most of the trending topics really annoy me. A few days ago, there was a trending topic for #reasonstobeatyourgirlfriend, and I was pretty appalled. I do follow a couple of fashion related individuals, but very very few.
V’s blog is one I pay attention to because I generally enjoy what she has to say. I have very few blogs I actually read every day, and those are ones on my blogroll. I also usually blogroll those who blogroll me without asking for anything in return, but I generally do not do formal “blogroll exchanges.”
Thanks for your comment, I’ll look over your archives.
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I am much the same way when it comes to blogs: I only list on my blogroll who I truly follow (one of my favorites is G&G). As you read, I only recently got on Twitter, but I never even paid attention to the trending topics until recently (I’m still learning the lingo).
I appreciate you checking out my past posts. I’m looking at your blog as we speak!
