Being Unique while Tweeting

Today I finally set up a Twitter account. It has been on the cards since I got my new fancy phone (one that doesn’t just make calls !!) but I had a problem from the outset. When deciding on a username I found that all the various permutations of Kevin Morris & Photography had been used. I should have guessed as there are a few Kevin Morris Photographers in the States, one is quite well known over there, and there are also quite a few Kevin Morris Photographers in the UK. So, far from being unique, I am in fact quite common !!

So, for the time being my twitter account is @ModernImages. I know this goes against all the basic branding rules, but it will have to do for the moment. I will don my thinking cap over the next couple of weeks and try to get a more appropriate username before my next big announcement (watch this space).

For anyone who decides to follow me on Twitter I have set some ground rules for my tweets – as follows :

  • I promise not to tweet about what I am having for lunch, or that I am going to the shops for bread, you know, the everyday inane stuff.(btw todays lunch, for anyone interested – gouda cheese on wholemeal + hunky dory cheese & onion)
  • I promise not to tweet about what a great holiday I am having (chance would be a fine thing !)
  • I promise not to tweet about how fantastic my wife is, or if I am having breakfast in bed etc…. (btw – you are fantastic dear !!)
  • I promise to try keep my tweets short, interesting & relevant (unlike my blog)

I will set some more ground rules as I progress.

Don’t forget – @ModernImages
