When Jim Carrey has passed through the artificial sea and has gone out of reality show in the „Truman show” movie, I said – wow, incredible! Communications in Twitter (or let me call Twitter show) look very similar:

a) Open – you can see everyone’s tweets and everybody can see yours;

b) Real – like: everybody is interested to reflect his chosen part (reality) of himself. If not, why most of tweets talk about authority building? And one friend even suggested not adding party photos to a blog, tweet etc. Don’t you build your virtual image?

c) Teaching - if you don’t know something about Twitter, millions of educators will help to get Twitter tips. They will help you if you even don’t need to learn anything about it… Similar to people real relations except that in real world you can choose – to read or not to read. In Twitter show world you read them through by default.

I liked a Burg’s review  and here is one of his conclusions on this article:

Twitter is a mix of SMS, instant messaging, blogging and mind mapping, all to create something truly unique. 

I would like to add – all to create something UNIQUE and look like REAL.

But Twitter has one simple important option forgotten by lots of online businessmen: simple conversation and discussion among users. This let’s all the show become the reality and stops robotic communications.

Virtual communications can give only followers. Mass tweets can give you mass followers. Only real non customised conversation among users can create basic real world connections among people. Later these connections easily become closer to people real relations: business, interests or real respect.

Don’t forget – simply communicate with people!
