TWITTER ETIQUETTE


In response to a class room assignment I posted a link on a wiki involving an article on twitter entitled Twitter etiquette for businesses: How to keep your followers I would like to surmise this article for you now. This article includes a list of 6 suggestions for anyone involved in using a twitter. First of these rules states that one should be careful when using hash tags in that they should make sense for the discussion topic being brought up. Next is to respond to followers since twitter is a networking tool to keep a conversation going. Third heuristic this site makes is to vary it up a bit by talking about other things than you. The forth rule to live by when tweeting is to stick to the 140 character limit of a tweet since incomplete sentences are in essence a waste of space. The 5th rule includes a corny/cute video where the actors involved treat use of exclamation points as though it were an n addiction causing an AA like meeting of bloggers. And the last rule of this site is to not ask for Re-tweets since it is the spontaneity that is what generates a good back and forth.
