Tomorrow we have an exam, so sad... I am feeling I'm on holidays because of the sun, the 9 hours of class per week BUT NO we have also homework and exams ;)
So for this week we have to talk about 5 people or organizations that we follow on TWITTER!
LA Times
The first organization that I follow is LA Times because I’m in the US for a quarter. I have to keep track of what is going on in this country in politics, economics, etc. These following shows to everybody that not only do I live and study in the USA but I’m also interested in the news, the culture and I want to know different aspects of this country.
Le Monde (a French newspaper)
Even if I’m not in France, I’m still following what is happening over there. For example, there was the “socialist primary” last week. I know that François Hollande won it and he might become the future President of France. It’s really important to be connected not only for my personal knowledge but also not to be lost when I will come back in France later.

Bruno Mars
I also follow a famous singer, Bruno Mars. I really like this artist and I want to know if he will release an album or a single soon, if his new clip is online and what his tour dates are. This can help me because it shows that I love music and I have some centers of interest.
Monsieur Dream
I also follow “Monsieur Dream” a.k.a Cyprien, a French humorist who posted several podcasts on the social media Youtube. He’s very famous in France and has created the buzz every time. He posted a new podcast last week where he responded to another podcaster who was making fun of him saying “Cyprien the Down’s syndrome guy” or stuffs like that. The video was seen 4 million times in just one week. This allows me to be in touch with the buzz of the moment and the last news.
Madjid Asmani
Finally, I follow organizations and famous people but I also follow Madjid, a friend of mine. It’s important to keep in touch with our friends because it’s the real life and I don’t want to become a geek ;). I can know where is he, what’s he’s doing, his state of mind, etc.
All these tweets that I am following help me to build my brand because in add of all the reasons that I stated earlier, it allows me to be connected with the world. I can find people who have the same interests than me. I can also give my point of view such as “I disagree with the politics of Mr X because Reason Y” or “I find very funny the new podcast of Mr Z”. Or I can also create a debate with my point of view concerning a new legislation in France, etc.
Following tweets shows that I am responsive on internet especially in Twitter where we have a tweet every second. If we respond or read a topic one week after his publication, we are beside the topic because other news already came out.
Twitter works like that because it’s easy to use (finally it’s easy for me whereas I thought at first it was difficult), we are able to follow people and organizations that we like or tweet with just one sentence about our mood, where we are, etc.
