HOW DO I GET STARTED?

Create your account.

 Tweet - Each of your Twitter posts or updates is known as a tweet. - symbol is a way of referring to another Twitter user. For means you're either sending a message to the training team or you're talking about them in your message.  Retweet - A retweet - or RT - is when you share the tweet of one user with all of your Twitter followers. If you happen to follow a Twitter news feed and they post a link to a story that you feel should be shared, you can "retweet" it. TWITTER TERMINOLOGY

 Reply - Reply is when you respond to a tweet from a particular user in the public feed.  Direct Message – Replies are completely public, but a direct message is a private message that you send through a discussion board. You can only send a direct message to someone that is following your account.  Follower – Unlike Facebook, Twitter allows for one- way relationships. If you find Twitter users who are interesting, you can "follow them" to subscribe to their tweets. TWITTER TERMINOLOGY
