Hi Chris,

EzineArticles auto-tweeting service is great benefit. It makes easy work of re-purposing your articles and significantly expands your article reach.

Thanks!

Chris,

Thanks. Your post reminded me to *update* my Twitter info at my EzineArticles profile.

Mine was one of many Twitter accounts that were hacked, and I had to change my password.

It was hacked right after I signed up with a service that showed me a comparison of who I was following vs. who was following me (I had to enter my Twitter login info — bad mistake in this case). So be careful, y’all.

Very nicely done Chris and team!

I can’t wait to send my members here to see how this is set up. I’ve been preaching it for months and now they can see it!

Thanks

Excellent idea to offer this How To vid… seeing steps makes it so much easier to follow and implement.

I look forward to all the other videos.

This is a great service because it’s a great time saver.
Anytime we have the ability to publish something to a public site is a good thing in my book but when it is automatic and we have to do nothing but initial setup its off the charts for me.

Thanks for setting this up!

It is a great feature this twit my articles business.

In fact I have been learning a lot from @EzineArticles so that is great. I like the video tutorials angle. We want more!

BTW great interview with @jeffherring

Now my goodman I am noticing a very male dominated trend here though, what are you doing to attract more women, since the constitute an 85% purchasing power?

I like your videos, but frankly am somewhat tired by your e-mail news reminding us of RULES, RULES and RULES. You want value in comments, and let me remind you that there MIGHT also be value in comments even if you DISAGREE with them. Value is recognized when you realize that feedback IS valuable.

Also, a certain penalty is involved when auto-tweeting comes in large chunks. When you set 6-8 articles in queue which are approved within a few hours it becomes semi-spamming.

So a utility that could “SPREAD” tweets above 2 per day into chunks of max 2-3 per day would be useful.

Let’s all LEARN from one another instead of setting up so many rules we end up forgetting half the joy of writting altogether.

My 0.02$ on the matter. Carpe diem. :-)

Henrik,

Which email news from us reminds you of RULES RULES RULES?

I don’t know what you’re talking about? Please clarify.

As for your recommendation… we’ll consider it.

I’ve kept the same resource box for all articles. Two were approved, a third was denied. I released that article on another article database – Article Kitty instead.

Similarly, there are rules of submissions and rules for comments [http://blog.EzineArticles.com/2007/01/ezinearticlescom-blog-comment-policy.html]. Why not just simply moderate instead?

Noone is trying to offend anyone.

But I am an ex-author in this regard. I don’t see the visitor numbers I expected but wish all of you the best of luck.

Hasta la vista. :-)

Henrik,

Ahhh, so you came here from Twitter where I tried to give our audience a hint to get their comments released faster (remove keyword stuffed name fields, ala rule #5) or remove your resource box from the bottom of your comment because you already received a link to your name.

I did do a follow up tweet 17 minutes ago that said, “But… we’d still rather have your blog comment that needs to be edited to remove your double dipping URL than not have it. :)

Hi Chris,

Just one silly question, where was that post about having EzineArticles browsable on iPhone again?

Having said that, do you have a video explaining how to submit articles using iPhones ‘thumb typing’?

I was afraid of contracting – sorethumbs doing this…

Vern,

I’m pretty sure we’re not developing an iPhone skin for the purposes of article submission via the iPhone. sorry…

EzineArticles itself is browsable via the iPhone or any mobile device here: http://EzineArticles.mobi/

Chris, my pleasure. You might also consider adding social networking link buttons to each article so that those readers who want to bookmark an article can do so easily, from inside the EzineArticles interface. Since you emphasize good user experience so much I thought I should mention that. Keep up the good work. Best regards. Ugur
