Twitter Is What You Make It
Writing can be solitary work, but not when you are writing a tech column. Feedback pours in so quickly by emails, on blogs, in online comments. The first time I heard about Twitter was during my e-Learning class with Madam Monisa. Yet, it was something new for me who was a blind in Technology once upon a time.
Basically, Twitter is a website where you can broadcast very short messages until 140 characters, maximum to anyone who sign up to receive them. I t is like a cross between a blog and a chatroom. Most of my friends had sign up for Twitter. Yes, this is something special about technology.... You can create an account for as many web site as you can. Isn't it special?
I found some rules about Twitter and that would be;
1) Don't knock it until you have tried it. This advice goes for everything that you are going to do or experience in life. As in this context, you cannot feel the Twitter unless you try it. So what are you waiting for?
2) You do not have to read all the tweets. It is a norm to check wheter you have a tweet or not but you do not have to read all of it especially when you see that "Following: 400 people." How can you read all the tweets? Read smartly... Skip the unimportant ones and read the importand or imformative ones.
3) Of course, you do not have to answer all the replies mostly if you have hundreds of followers. Fortunately, this is not emails....where nobody espects you to answer everything.
4) Do not worry about the rules.. Use Twitter as you want. Do not let anyone tell youwhat are you doing right now. Isn't simple as ABC....
Just have fun with TWITTER!!!! HAVE FUN GUYS....
