A tweet is simply a message sent on Twitter. You need a free account to send email. You also need your account contact information. Otherwise, write blank.
You can use Twitter like a blog. Publish all. Let everyone read your profile. However, if you want to chat with your friends, you need to register them as well.
Once you have an account, you can start building your network. Invite users. Follow others. This is the problem. You may only see part of the conversation. Friends’ messages are displayed. If they reply to someone outside your network, you won’t get replies from other people.
“Tweets have some limitations, primarily due to Twitter’s design, which relies heavily on text messages.”
Limited to 140 characters. The system blocks the remaining mobile users. Members can read the entire text on the website. Third-party applications are also available.
Early Tweets were text only. Now it also includes photos. You can add a 6 second video clip from Vine. Twitter bought Vine in 2012.
Giving up is easy. Join us on Twitter. Got one shot. Unfollow their feed.
No original content required. Share other people’s tweets. Forward the message to your followers. This is called transfer.
User hash symbols classify messages. Add the hashtag after the subject line. Do you have tweets about new cars? Use #newcar #porsche #bank account empty. These hashtags make your posts searchable.
Applications are discussed in the next section.
