Twelcome To My Twitter Page!
May 14th, 2008 | By Barbara | Category: Make Things SimpleQuick, first the credits! I thought I writing this page after reading the article, Does Your Blog have a Twitter Landing Page? That came into being after the author noticed @Pistachio and her Twelcome page…..and as I thought that was pretty darned clever, I decided to do that for meself!
So here goes!
My name is Barbara Ling (astonishing, I know, given the domain name of the site you are visiting) and you’re on my Twitter Twelcome page! In real life, I’ve been a successful online entrepreneur now for over a decade; my trademark has always been
Turning Technical Into Simple
Honestly, in a nutshell, that’s what I do! I’ve built literally hundreds of sites over the years, been quoted in the Wall Street Journal and appeared on the Sallie Jessie Raphael show, wrote 25 ebooks…oh heck, you can learn more about my professional credentials here. I love teaching what I know with humor and zaniness – some posts that will give you a flavor about that are:
- RANT – What the eBay Affiliate Program is Missing Part 1 – Celebrity Endorsements!
- Blacklisted by Akismet – How to fix being banned and escape from Comment Hell
- Freeing yourself of fear – how to successfully contact A-list bloggers
- For That Special Mom – Presenting The 12 Days of Mother’s Day!
- Proactively boost your blog subscription via the Best Benefits Technique
- Time Sensitive – Make Money with Indiana Jones
and some guest blogs/Interviews include:
- Guest post at John Chow.com – Empower Your Children To Out-Earn Their Professors
- Interview at SEOMOZ – Barbara Ling: Secrets of a Veteran Webmaster
But as I use Twitter for more than simply business, here’s the other profile of me – I’m a mom in her 40s who raises 4 kids, does massively wondrous martial arts like karate, kendo, brazilian Jiu jitsu (if I can ever find another dojo who welcomes women in their 40s), takes care of bunches of TwitterBudgies, and loves saying "Hi!" to good-natured friendly folk on Twitter.
And since you’ve come here from Twitter, chances are, you’ll love my humor site below that I created for April Fools:
If you already follow me on Twitter, thanks very much! Please say Hi to me at @barbaraling and I’ll follow you back! And if you like what I say or my site, please feel free to tell your friends about @barbaraling as well.fa
Thanks for visiting! I hope you do enjoy my site and please feel free to drop me a line should you have any questions (or just want to fax me a cup of coffee). Oh! And I almost forgot – I’ve pulled together all the benefits to my subscribing to my site here. I invite you to check it out and enjoy!
Enjoy,
Barbara

Hi! Barbara, What a great idea to have a Twelcome page on your blog, I’ll think about it – it makes perfect sense.
What I did, I create a lensography, which I call it socialography (because is so much related with Web 2.0), with all my activity, I am still working on it, but it is a good start:

I created a couple of new lenses, all of them are in socialography, post 2-3 times in my main blog, and like usual I am doing to many things in the same time.
There is a hope with Push Button Marketer to start to create macros for repeating work and this way to free some time, but at this point I am swimming on heavy streams, and global warming is still far away .
What are you doing? (Twit ID: cernescu)
