Tweet/Search a Job!- TweetJobSearch Although many of the job tweets are now currently from the USA and Canada, Twitter members can tweet jobs from anywhere in the world. Just be sure to post the #COUNTRY hashtag so people know.
- TweepJob is a free service that uses #hashtags to help track messages on Twitter. If you are looking for a job or freelance gig then just send a twit about what you’re looking for and add the #tweepseek hashtag in your tweet.Employees looking to fill a position can use the hashtag #tweephunt.
TweepJob tracks tweets based on these hashtags to let you know what others are looking for. This free service is courtesy of TweepJob (follow to get updates!) - JobMotel is a web developer’s haven

@PhilreCareered has a blog about Optimising Your Resume. Follow @HumanicsSg for Singapore-based careers and job opportunities. TwitterHandbook.com is all about Twitter. Last saw a funny video: Should you use a Social Media Assistant?  | | Twitter Directories 1. GeoFollow You can add yourself to this directory by sending a tweet to GeoFollow Eg. @Geofollow XXX Street (and State if necessary), Singapore, #health #vegetarian #pets #compassion #eco-friendly #myths. 2. TweeplePage is a user-powered directory of Twitter members organized by their interests. 3. TweetFind is perhaps the newest Twitter directory to join the Internet. Here, you can place your Twitter profile like a free Yellow Pages listing.  4. Twellow (was mentioned in my previous blog but worth a re-mention) is a directory of Twitter members categorized into hundreds of fields of interest! If you don’t see a category to fit in you can create a new category. |

And just because you came and read to this point, you can download 6 blank Twitter backgrounds shown below (you can give it away, sell it, auction it, place it on your membership website…whatever): 
You need your own image editor like Gimp or Adobe Photoshop to edit and then, upload your background picture to your Twitter profile. Use a file decompressor like 7-zip to view and extract your free twitter images. Please note I offer no support for the above Twitter backgrounds (I will blog about the service providers – free and commercial in another blog entry). If you can’t wait for a nice personalised Twitter background, I do take customisation orders between US$9 to US$15 per Twitter background (US$3 per alteration after that) till I am fully booked – this keeps me alive to bring you more tips on Health, Twitter and blogging themes! ~grin~ |

| 20. | TweetSpinner is not just a Twitter Tool (free service) that allows you to schedule automatic follows or purges (unfollowing). You can stop worrying about unfollowing unfollowers by mistake. No more unfollowing unfollowers blindly.TweetSpinner allows you to setup your own immunity lists to avoid purging folks who you never want to stop following (you know, celebrities, newsfeeds, and so on). You can also view complete lists of people you’ve purged (and TweetSpinner will never refollow them).By examining the Friend/Follow ratio of a Twitter member, TweetSpinner also tells you whether unfollowers are likely to follow you back. These follow options are fully configurable and refinable. Precise reciprocity scores are shown – a pie-chart, and statistics for every keyword and location. This lets you refine, refine, refine to target the most effective words (and locations). “Twitter gives you only a small sandbox to play. A tiny bio. One URL. And some design colors. With tweet spinner, you can change all that. Literally. You can rotate your bio, URL, and design features on schedule — every hour, every day, whenever you like. This helps you maximize these tools by giving your followers more information.” |
