We know it’s true: “Every picture tells a story.” and “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Well this fun Twitter application called Twitter Sheep tells a fabulous story worth a thousand words!
Simply submit your Twitter username and voilà! a tag cloud of the bios from the people in your “flock.”
Here’s the Oneicity flock:
Now we have a word picture of our flock and we can see what bio words are most prominent. For Oneicity, “Social” and “Media” and “Marketing” are the three biggest. OK, no surprise because we follow some of the biggest names in the world of social media marketing: @chrisbrogan, @kanter and @marismith to name a few. But the prominent words we really love to see here are: “Homeless” and “Christian” and “Nonprofit”! Since those are the heart of our work, it’s a confirmation we are connecting with those in our core.
And for the fun part…you can hover over any word and click on it. Then the cloud will change based on those who have that particular word in their bio. How cool is that?
So what are you waiting for? Head on over to Twitter Sheep and see what your flock looks like. Is it what you’re expecting? Would love to hear what you find out.
