    $45 dollars (down from 110)? For something that you can find out for free using google and wikipedia? Surely this is not legit.

      If the target audience don't know what Twitter is, they probably don't know how to use Google or Wikipedia either. Seems opportunistic and expensive.

    If footballers can figure out how to use it then it's not hard enough to require a course!

    Definitely not a bargain to be charging for something which is readily available for free.

  • NosDan on 04/07/2013 - 10:38

    if people cant work out twitter themselves they need to reconsider going on the internet in the first place. its not an always lovely friendly place full of butterflies and unicorn poop….

  • bargaino on 04/07/2013 - 10:47

    People still use twitter?
    I thought it was a relic of an age when people had no mobile internet, so relied on SMS, hence the 140 character limit.

    I take your points but I can tell you that I teach these courses in person and there are people who struggle with Twitter even though you think it's simple. They want someone to take the time to structure a course, to think about how to explain things simply, and to answer their questions. I've taught people with Ph.Ds who don't know what copying-and-pasting is. You don't know me, you might think I'm making that up, but I'm not.

    Of course you can find "free" lessons online but, if we're being fair, most of the things you've linked to are ad-supported or promoting another commercial agenda. In the YouTube search, for instance, there's this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SE0uhifkIfs (fourth result, 140,000 views). It starts with a pre-roll ad and links to the creator's website, which is about learning to enter and win sweepstakes. I clicked it at random from the list, I didn't go looking for the oddest result to make a point that there's not much that's really "free".

    And obviously sites like CNET are supported by advertising.

    As I say, I take your points but there is a cost to creating this material and my course is more substantial than a 600-word article or a 15-minute video.

    You think it's overpriced, which it would be for you. You're obviously tech-savvy people but that means you might not appreciate how difficult some people find Twitter and social media generally, as I say. And, if you've never tried to teach someone like that, you might not appreciate how long it takes to put together a course that works for them.

    You can learn almost anything for free online or offline (a decent library might be all you need) but finding someone to teach it to you and who will answer your questions has a cost.

    I'm not looking for a fight. You're all entitled to your opinions and this is your site not mine, but you had strong views and I wanted to put my side across.

    • Mikinoz on 04/07/2013 - 11:04

      Maybe the next course is "What the hell is Ozbargain"

    • IceCreamBandit on 04/07/2013 - 11:30

      Thanks for your response. While I appreciate your point of view I feel some of your arguments are irrelevant.

      Of course you can find "free" lessons online but, if we're being fair, most of the things
      you've linked to are ad-supported or promoting another commercial agenda.

      Most things on the internet promote some form of commericial agenda, it's unavoidable. We just have to be critical with what we see.

      It starts with a pre-roll ad and links to the creator's website, which is about learning to
      enter and win sweepstakes. I clicked it at random from the list, I didn't go looking for the
      oddest result to make a point that there's not much that's really "free".

      If you ignore it then it would be free?

      And obviously sites like CNET are supported by advertising.

      May I suggest an ad blocker for your browser?

      You think it's overpriced, which it would be for you. You're obviously tech-savvy people

      Why did you choose to post on this site then? A better place to advertise your "deal" for your PhD wielding audience would probably be universities or other locations where these people maybe frequent.

    I taught my mum how to use twitter in 3 minutes

  • SydBargainer on 04/07/2013 - 13:13

    45 bucks!! Please, don't insult us.

    Yep, it takes 5 minutes to learn how to use Twitter - mechanically, that is. It's quite another matter to use it to grow your reputation, get a job, promote your business, or even be heard. Might be the best $45 you ever spend.
