Myrl Jeffcoat of Sacramento County spent the day following the BronxZoosCobroa on Twitter and shared some of itssssssss tweets in her post! It's so amusing I wanted to share as well. In case you haven't heard, this snake now has over 171,000 followers, right now its 5:30 pm pacific time, March 30, 2011. How long until he reaches over one million followers???
Terrie
Occasionally, I need to break my own rules. "What rules," you wonder? Since Twitter first came to the social media scene, I have avoided the 140 character app, like the plague. I simply couldn't understand why anyone would need to communicate in a matrix, with so limited a character restraint.
But that was before a very adventurous Egyptian cobra managed escape from The Bronx Zoo this past weekend. Shortly thereafter, BronxZoosCobra, began tweeting its "sssslithering" escapades in New York City. I have visited NYC, but must admit BZC is experiencing The City with a totally different and insightful perspective.
In one tweet, BronxZoosCobra posted, "On top of the Empire State Building - All the people look like little mice down there. Delicious little mice." But my favorite BZC tweets his visit to Wall Street, "Visited Wall Street as well, but didn't stay long since the people down there made my skin crawl."
Real Estate Professionals often attend classes and seminars on how to network and use social media to effectively reach the world with marketplace wisdom of the day. BronxZoosCobra has accumulated 120,000 followers within a couple days after checking out of its digs at the Bronx Zoo. That's an enviable number of subscribers by any standard.
In one tweet, BZC describes itself as "venomous - not poisonous," reminiscent of some bank negotiators during short-sale transactions. Except I suspect BZC would call them "short-tales" rather than "short-sales."
While some news media is labeling the "missing in action" reptile as a "fugitive," I don't see it that way. If someone cooped me up indoors for a number of years, I'd seek escape and a Twitter account too. Afterall, wars are currently fought in the name of FREEDOM.
So, as of this morning, I can also be reached at twitter.com@myrljeffcoat. . .And as BronxZoosCobra would say, "Thankssss."A few Tweets from BronxZoosCobra follow here:
