Tom Hiddleston Quotes

I'm so fascinated by YouTube culture. I have no idea how it's working, but more and more people are becoming Internet famous, and it is because it allows you to have an atmosphere in which you feel comfortable to be yourself, which you might not get otherwise.

There are loads of websites devoted to me.

I haven't been recognized out in public or anything. The strangeness of celebrity has been relegated to Twitter, which is kind of manageable.

Blogs are quite a new development - now, everyone wants to know you, everyone wants to know everything about you. And you can build a following that way. In a way, it's a good thing if you want to create a buzz around yourself.

What I find interesting is that the people that follow your Twitters are called 'followers.' Talk about false idolatry, right?

There is a Twitter account apparently dedicated to my brows. I do not Tweet on it, but... they talk about who they've seen today.

Before I was even famous, I was famous on Facebook.

I do not have a Facebook page, and I do not chat on Twitter. I don't have a web site, even if there are people who have opened one in my name, complete with my photo.

I've got a group chat with my friends, and they were telling me I was blowing up on Twitter. I don't really look into those things, though.

I'm proud of a lot of things I've said on Twitter.

Social media stars are kind of taking the traditional route, like movies.

I was at a restaurant in Glasgow, and I was walking down the stairs. A woman passed me and said, 'Oh my God, what are you doing here?' I didn't know who she was, and I was like, 'Sorry?' She goes, 'Oh no, sorry, I follow you on Twitter. I just didn't expect to see you here.'

I've come to really like Twitter. You really do get to see what I'm about, and I like sharing with my fans.

We all have personal brands and most of us have already left a digital footprint, whether we like it or not. Proper social media use highlights your strengths that may not shine through in an interview or application and gives the world a broader view of who you are. Use it wisely.

If you don't have a Facebook, like, you're nobody. There's all of these sort of requirements now, and if you don't have all of these things - Facebook, Twitter, etc. - you're made fun of. And Twitter for celebrities... everything is just getting so personal. Pictures of yourself, of what you're eating for breakfast.

The problem most people make with their media presence is they're trying to craft a media presence as opposed to just consistently publishing who they are.

Most days I am in public. If I go to the store, with social media, I'm in public. It might as well be a press conference.

A famous actor told me once - I don't want to name names, I hate that sort of thing - but I was at his house and he said, 'Are you on Twitter?' I said, 'Yes, I am.' And he said, 'There'll be one day when you'll have, like, five friends. And in the same day it'll go to five thousand.'

Twitter is the limit of me putting myself out there.
