It all started when I found out that @LamarOKC was re-posting tweets from followers in the OKC area.  What a cool thing, if you got on, you got a few minutes of fame.  I also have to applaud Lamar advertising for such a clever marketing strategy…. they certainly got the attention of the OKC Twitter comunity!  So I followed @LamarOKC and soon enough got the e-mail saying they were following me!  Step 1 complete!

One day I noticed the trend of weird tweets being posted on the billboard and mis-spellings.  So when someone asked @LamarOKC how to get on the billboard, I had to open my mouth, or tweet, something like that.  That is the first time I got on the billboard.

The cool thing is that once you got on, there was a picture of your tweet waiting for you on the OKC Lamar Facebook page.  Since the first one, @LamarOKC put me on a couple more times.  One night @LamarOKC gave my hubby some twitter love and posted his tweet about electric cars.  How cool is that for local businesses, plus just plain fun!

So, I had a lot of fun watching all the tweets and enjoyed my few minutes of fame.  If you are trying to get on the bilboard yourself, well, just be yourself.  They will most likely post something you really didn’t want all of OKC seeing, well, that is sorta how it worked for me.

Oh, don’t forget to follow me on Twitter if you haven’t already… @parrowpages and @eletelephant for the fun stuff!
