What Is Twitpic?

Twitpic is a website that enables users to connect images to their Twitter messages. Users are able to upload and post images in near real time. When you set up Twitpic, the system automatically uses the same username and password from your Twitter account.

To post a picture, log into your Twitpic account. Browse for your photo. Add a message to it. Then, you have the option to post it and the option to list the location. After you’ve made those choices click on “Upload Photo” and you’re done.

Twitpic was launched in February of 2008. Today it is growing by 30,000 – 40,000 per day!  It almost has 10 million users.

A Great Video On Twitter

Here’s a great video with some wonderful tips on getting the most out of your twitter account. Invest four minutes and I’ll bet you learn something.

On of my favorite Twitter rescue stories is one I came across in Anthony Robbins’ book Twitter Power. He talks about a pastor in Atlanta, Georgia, who was stuck in an airport in Dallas. Something happened to his evening flight and he was going to be delayed for several hours. He was tired and not too happy about spending the night at the airport. So he sent out a tweet. Within minutes he had received several e-mails, a few phone calls and a lot of Tweets.  Before the ordeal was over someone provided the minister with a hotel room where he could get some rest.
