  3. Getting to know Twitter Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent messages. People write short updates, often called "Tweets" of 140 characters or fewer. These messages are posted to your profile, sent to your followers, and are searchable on Twitter search.

  4. How do I find my friends? When you create an account, you can search for people by name or user name, import friends from other networks, or invite friends via email. If you don't want to do that, follow some of the people Twitter suggested. Once you've found your friends, follow them to start getting their updates.

  5. For example: My Twitter username is: @GunnarSimonsen

  6. What does it mean to follow someone on Twitter? Following someone simply means receiving their Twitter updates. When you follow someone, every time they post a new message, it will appear on your Twitter home page. New messages are added to your home page as people post them, so you always get the updates in real time. When you log in, you can see what the latest updates are. Twitter offers other ways to follow people too: you can get updates from certain people on your phone!

  7. To follow someone, when viewing their profile, simply click follow.

  8. Four things I look for before I follow someone: Do they have a profile picture Does their bio seem interesting Are they tweeting interesting content Are they engaging others

  9. How do I know who is following me? Twitter sends you an email when someone new follows you. Set up your email preferences to notify you when you have a new follower. The 'Followers' link on your profile page or home page's sidebar will also tell you how many followers you have.

  10. Who reads my updates? It's up to you. Your followers read your updates, and anyone else who comes across them in a search. Your Tweets are public by default; if you're hesitant to have strangers read your updates, protect your Tweets to approve followers and keep your updates out of search.

  11. What are @replies? An @reply is a public message sent from one person to another, distinguished from normal updates by the @username prefix. If a message begins with @username, we collect it as an @reply. Reply publicly to any update on Twitter by using the @username format. Following is not necessary to reply to someone, and all @replies directed to you are visible in the Mentions tab on the Connect page.

  12. What are direct messages? Direct messages are personal messages sent from one Twitter person to another; they do not appear in the public timeline, like an @reply or mention. You can only send a direct message to a person who follows you. When you receive a direct message, we save it in your direct message inbox, accessible by clicking on the person icon and selecting Direct messages from the drop down. You can also set your email preferences to notify you by mail if you have a new message.

  13. What are Retweets (RT)? A Retweet a re-posting of someone else's Tweet. Sometimes you will see the initials RT in a Tweet. Sometimes users add RT somewhere in a Tweet to indicate that part of their Tweet includes something they're re-posting from another person's Tweet, sometimes with a comment of their own.

  14. What Are Hashtags ("#" Symbols)? Definition: The # symbol, called a hashtag, is used to mark keywords or topics in a Tweet. It was created organically by Twitter users as a way to categorize messages. Hashtags: Helping you find interesting Tweets People use the hashtag symbol # before relevant keywords in their Tweet to categorize those Tweets to show more easily in Twitter Search Clicking on a hashtagged word in any message shows you all other Tweets in that category

  15. Trending? • It’s what people on Twitter are talking about the most at any given time. • This can be done by most cities by selecting the “change” option. • By clicking on a trending topic, it will • then show all tweets with the trending topic in them. • Warning – some can be for mature audiences only • Promoted tweets are tweets purchased to promote by businesses
