The Shorty Interview
with Matteo Wyllyamz

What's your best tweet?
The one I am writing right now.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What's your favorite Twitter app?
A few: TweetReach, Commun.it, BufferApp, Tweepi, and TwitCleaner.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What are some words or phrases you refuse to shorten for brevity?
I rarely shorten anything. Twitter is about economy of language, not abbreviations.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
Why should we vote for you?
I work hard at creating a feed that is informative and entertaining but it is nothing without the continued support of the Twitter community.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What inspires you to tweet?
Sharing information makes the world a better place when we all learn more about how interconnected everything is.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
140 characters of advice for a new user?
Be yourself. Those who matter won't mind, and those that mind don't matter.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What is one of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter?
One of the biggest misconceptions of Twitter is that it is somehow harming or even destroying language. The truth is, it teaches brevity.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
How do you decide what to tweet?
Twitter is like a journal, so I tweet about what is important to me: thoughts, news stories I'm reading, or something that makes me laugh.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What are some big Twitter faux pas?
Assuming that a retweet equals an endorsement of an opinion or of a link's content.
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook
What will the world be like 10 years from now?
Everything is accelerating, so the world will be more different 10 years from now than it was 10 years ago.
