Yeah, yeah, I’ve marketed before. But I realized something recently: I have a bad Twitter habit. Not in using Twitter itself, but in favoriting tweets to go back and read their links later. I usually do this on my phone so I don’t have to worry about loading a website, or when I have enough time to look at twitter but not enough to look at a full article.
I recently went into my favorites and found hundreds of these. Some of them were years old and irrelevant. But two things jumped out at me: I mostly star links that Joanna Penn posts, and I mostly star tweets that are links to marketing articles.
I’ve read very few of these.
So I cleaned out the irrelevant tweets and got the list down to 150 or so. Some I’m keeping because they’re just too awesome, and some I’m keeping because they make me grin like a damn fool. But most are there because, dammit, I still intend on following those links. Now that I have many, many marketing articles to read, I’m going to try to boil them all down to the ULTIMATE MARKETING ADVICE BLOG POST.
Stay tuned.
[EDIT- So... a lot of those URL shortening services are not permanent... this could shorten this project considerably...]

I used to have this issue until I fell in love with ReadItLater which is a free app that works for just about everything including PC. When you find a link like that you just mark it to be read later. Then when you have a spare second, you can just grab one whenever. I esp like it on the tablet because it gives you the option to download everything for when you read it later and maybe don’t have wifi. It basically creates a magical magazine only of things you meant to read.
Anyway, I have no stake in this random app, it just makes my life happier/easier so I thought I would share.
