You may have caught it and deleted it right away, but someone probably saw it. You just hope that someone wasn't your boss or a troll.
So what steps can you take to avoid causing a rogue tweet?
- Tweet from separate programs or devices. Many dual-Twitterers create boundaries by tweeting institutionally from their work computer and by tweeting personally from their mobile devices. This approach makes it easy to shift persona with less risk.
- Set your tweeting program's default account to your personal one. If you're going to accidentally tweet from the wrong account, it's much less risky to post a straight-laced institutional news item from your personal account than to post a snarky comment for your college or school. This trick is great if you don't have a smartphone.
- Don't tweet angry (or when otherwise mentally compromised). You shouldn't do this anyway, but tweeting angry (or when #gettngslizzerd) from an institutional account will most certainly grab the attention of your followers. Tweet from both personal and institutional accounts as though your boss, HR office or university president is watching at all times (because they just might be), and even if you mix up accounts, there's not much harm. Heck, one time I accidentally posted a higher ed marketing link from the law school account and the university retweeted it.
- Share these tips with other institutional tweeting colleagues so they don't rogue tweet, either.
Yes It is most common mistake while tweeting for your institute as well as to your personal account. Many management Colleges in Bangalore are on the way of increasing their online presence by social media optimization and many of those have accounts in twitter, facebook etc. If one is tweeting/posting by mistake in institution's account as oneself then it can be negative for best MBA colleges in Bangalore
