We have always known that Twitter is a powerful online platform think large scale political revolutions through to smaller charity wins. Well this week Twitter launched Twitter Stories to showcase interesting and innovative uses of the social media platform. Twitter said on their blog “Each story reminds us of the humanity behind Tweets that make the world smaller”.
Users can submit their own stories by tweeting at @TwitterStories or including the hashtag #TwitterStories in their tweets.
Among the tales, there are stories about a man who found a kidney donor after tweeting, “Sh*t, I need a kidney”.
You can imagine that charities/non-profits may find Twitter Stories useful for showcasing how your contributions have helped their organisation and corporate organisations could use it effectively to show a more personal/human side.
We all know how powerful story-telling can be so this initiative is a welcome addition.
