1 image, the new resume

First the blog, then twitter, now an image? Can these all replace your traditional resume? Seems like a good bet for someone whos doing graphics work.

Evan Bartlett has invited you to join Kiva!

Hello! Sorry to hit everyone up with a bulk email like this, but its for a good cause! I wanted to let you know about Kiva (www.kiva.org), a non-profit that allows you to lend as little as $25 to a specific low-income entrepreneur across the globe. You choose who to lend to - whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq - and as they repay their loan, you get your money back. It’s a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty. I’ve been volunteering there the last couple of months in their community outreach team, and I’m in charge of all of their social media efforts. Check it out and let me know what you think!

How are you tracking twitter stats?

I’m doing community management for a nonprofit, called Kiva.org (check it out if you dont know it already!), and I’d like to keep detailed stats about how our twitter account is progressing.


To start, I just want to know on a day-to-day basis what my follower count is, how many people my account is following, and how many updates i’ve made (see screenshot, these 3 pieces of data are right on the www.twitter.com/kiva profile).

Eventually I’d like to get more serious and try to link it to other actions to see whats driving the most engagement and traffic, but in the short term I’d like any tips you have that would be easier than me going to the page everyday and jotting down the latest stats in an excel spreadsheet.

Thanks

Evan Bartlett
