Twitter
So after a year or so of wondering what to do with Twitter, outside of an occasional Tweet, I got busy on it yesterday.
In 12 hours, a dozen tweets, I picked up 12 followers.
At that rate, in 80.42 days I will have more followers than my biggest VOD partner has.
Then what...?

Then you keep doing more of the same.

hahahaha! follow me... and i will follow you @DonnyAldo :)

I didn't realize until I logged in now to follow Donny, that I have 44 followers. That changes the landscape.

Yesterday's project was to write a PHP script to list all 400 of my videos (DVDs) and eBooks, with a FB and TW share button to do its duty for each.
Today's project was to get the bit.ly API set up, and a PHP script working to use the biy.ly API to shorten my URLs before sending to FB and TW, and to store and recall bit.ly shortened URLs in/from an SQL table.
As usual, finding how-to things on Google took 2-3 times longer than need be, by usually encountering a bad method, or an outdated method, first. Or some know-it-all airhead who leaves out some steps, supposing that you know that there is a first step(s).
I didn't run the script to put all 400 bit.ly shortened URLs in the SQL table all at once. I do each via a click when needed.

You could have used yourls for your own shortening script.
