Trade union Twitter survey findings

As previously posted on this blog, LabourStart is looking at how trade unions can make use of Twitter.

The findings have now been published.

Key points:

A small but growing number of trade unionists use Twitter, though few are intensive users.

Only a tiny number use Twitter for trade union purposes.

Re-tweeting, the Twitter equivalent of forwarding an email, is not widely used.

Of all the other social networks, only Facebook is widely used and giant sites like MySpace and Bebo are off union members's radar.

Unions that do use Twitter are probably not very good at communicating this fact to members, as most did not know if their unions used Twitter.

Finally, there are considerable differences of opinion among union members online as to the value of Twitter.

Hey,

You have a great blog! A lot of great reading material (just bookmarked it). My name is Lisa, and I work with the website ZooCaro.

I just came across your site and am very interested in exchanging links. As you know, reciprocal linking benefits both of us by raising our search rankings and generating more traffic to both of our sites. I am trying to help spread the word about our new College-Site.com site, which helps college grads find jobs. Please post a link to my Job Search site as follows:

Title: College-Site.com
URL: http://www.college-site.com/
Description: Helping College students and graduates connect with potential employers!

Once you've posted the link, let me know the URL of the page that it's on, and I will post it on our site.You can reply to me at izoocaro@gmail.com

Thank you very much,

Lisa
