9. How to get started with Twitter? 5. Post your first few tweets. When you’re on the Twitter home page , you’ll see at the top a box under the heading “What are you doing?” That’s where you type in your tweets. Click the “update” button to send. Use Twitter clients: Tweetdeck, Twhirl, etc... 6. Reply to someone. Twitter supports rudimentary conversation. When the box is highlighted, you’ll see a little arrow curving up and to the left. Click that. Then you’ll see that person’s username preceded by an “@” sign appear in the posting box at the page top. After that, type a response to that post. Make sure it’s something you wouldn’t mind other people (even strangers) seeing; this is public. Association Telomiova.org http://telomiova.org
10. How to get started with Twitter? 7. Tell people you’re on Twitter . At first, just tell other Twitter users who are within your comfort zone — perhaps some of the people you’ve chosen to follow. But as you get used to this medium, you might want to post your Twitter ID on your personal blog, bio page on your employer’s site, with your byline, in your e-mail signature file, etc. (source inspired by: http://www.contentious.com ) Association Telomiova.org http://telomiova.org
