Guide to a TWEET LIFE!!!

• People Search. To find friends, celebs, organisations or to search specific topics you are interested in, type them into search.twitter.com.

• Use the @ sign. To create a reply, simply place the @ sign in front of their Twitter name. If it is a reply, the @ sign must be the first character of the tweet. To see replies to your own tweets, click on @Replies from your profile page.

• Shrink URLs. One of the most common uses of Twitter is sharing links. But youonly have 140 characters to work with. So instead of sharing a long URL, use a URL shortening serice as tinyurl.com, is.gd, ow.ly, bit.ly to shrink URLs.

• The art of re-tweets. If you want to copy and paste someone else’s tweet, it’s perfectly OK; in fact the original tweeter would be flattered! Just don’t forget to credit him or her! Re-tweeting is an effective way to spread good info quickly. To re-tweet, put RT @[their Twitter name] in front of their tweet and post it.

• Hashtags. If you’re tweeting about an event/topic that’s trending, give it a #hashtag. It will help when searching for certain topics e.g. #Brunei.

• Use labels. Labelling your tweets allows your followers to know instantly what you’re sharing. A label is like a tag at the beginning of your tweet e.g. Reading:, Stumbling:, Digging:.
