Think Outside the Box Thursday: Tacos and Twitter
It’s no secret that I love the Springwise newsletter — in fact, I often talk about it on my blogs. It is one of the few newsletters that I truly look forward to receiving.
Todays’s issue was chock-full of some really interesting gems, but the one I’d like to focus on today combines a “meals on wheels” theme, with a 21st century twist. Launched last fall, Kogi Korean BBQ takes the taste of Korean barbecue and “melds it with the portability of Mexican tacos and burritos for a whole new category of delectable food.”
Kogi’s signature Korean short ribs taco, for example, combines marinated short rib trimmings with sesame-chili salsa roja, lettuce and cabbage tossed in Korean chili-soy vinaigrette, and cilantro-green onion-lime relish.
The two Kogi trucks are always in motion, so if you want to know where they’re going to show up next, you’ll need to follow them on Twitter. For those who may prefer a more traditional dining experience, Kogi’s also has a location in the Alibi Room in Culver City.
Kogi’s concept isn’t the only thing that is innovative — they are kind on the wallet as well. At just $2 per taco, they won’t leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Have you tracked Kogi’s down on Twitter? Drop me a note and share your experience.
We’re Live! Tweet Fans Makes its Debut
November 7, 2008 by admin · Leave a Comment
If you are familiar with social media, chances are you have heard of the phenomenon that is Twitter.
Twitter is All About Life Between Email & Blog Posts
We all remember the show, “Seinfeld,” which was promoted as the show about nothing. Of course, anyone who watched it can tell you that the show was all about the seemingly mundane things that happen to us each and every day — and how those things impact our lives. Any one of those things, by itself, might not mean much. But, taken in context, it shows another side to our personalities, our lives, and our interests.
Think of Twitter as a way of sharing the little things that are happening between your typical emails to friends and family, and your regular blog posts. It could be the article you just read on the Wall Street Journal, a hilarious video you watched on YouTube, or a new coffee flavor you just tried at Starbucks. The only limits are your imagination, and 140 characters.
The Whole World’s a-Twitter
From your best friend from high school to Fortune 500 companies to political candidates, people all over the world have discovered the power of connecting with friends, family and prospects through Twitter.
Tweet Fans is a promotional service that harnesses the power of the social media site Twitter. I work directly with each client to identify their specific objectives and needs. Whether you need to have an account set up, or you are just looking to have the whole tweeting-business done for you, I stand ready and waiting to lend a hand (or a wing, as it were).
Stop over and check out the new site, and let me know what you think. While you’re visiting, I invite you to share some of your best Tip Tweets, for posting on the site. If I use yours, I will give you the full credit, and link to your website or blog.
