With the astronomical growth of twitter over the last year (2008-2009: 1382% growth), comes too much twutter (that’s twitter clutter). Let’s refer back to the classic Seinfeld episode “Sponge Worthy” While you may be using Twitter just for fun to get your thoughts down on record, before you pick up the iphone and open up TwitterFon, ask yourself, is it twitter worthy? While it may be interesting to you that Cuttles the cat ate some turkey meatloaf, it is something that is probably of interest to you and perhaps your family, but not to the world.

Even though it is only Sunday, I will do a little “followfriday” plug for some tweeple that I would like to call out who I believe are great role models. One is hedgefundinvest, a professional investor who shares his inner thoughts on the market in a unique way, with his own key legend on his tweets. The other is actually a club, socialmediaclub They are out to spread the world globally about social media and encourage the formation of local chapter groups. I just attended my first SMCNYC meeting this past week and it was very informative and well organized.

I encourage newbies to join and listen, gauge what other experienced tweeple are saying and perhaps engage in a conversation. You can search people and businesses of interest and identify and connect with those who’s thoughts and opinions you value (check out backtype). Pretty soon you will get your own groove and have your own purpose of why you are there. Save the “I am going to the dentist” for a text message to your mom, pass on good thoughts and information to the world on twitter.
