Twitter Reach Report

"Reach provides an understanding of the overall impact of your message or campaign. A high reach indicates that a broad base of different users found your message interesting and spread it to their followers. It often means that multiple unrelated people found out about your campaign from sources outside of Twitter. Conversely, a lower reach means that your message is likely only being shared among a smaller group of people who may be more interrelated (e.g. people in the same geographic area)."

Does Twitter Sell Books? Publishers Say Yes

"The trick to their success may lie in the community building which is so crucial to Twitter. Taeckens explains his three point plan for engagement: "First, be pro-active about interacting with other people; you have to engage in conversations, not merely post as if you're reporting to a captive public. Second, display your sense of personality; use wit, humor, creativity, and have fun. Third, post and comment on topics you know and care about--not just literature and publishing, but all topics in the cultural dialogue.""
