Those of us who spend a lot of time on the Internet or our SmartPhone, and particularly those of us who blog, find that Twitter is becoming more and more our daily social media outlet. We read volumes of “tweets” each day, and at the same time we are known to make a fair number of tweets and re-tweets ourselves.
Shannon Albert, who runs her own blog entitled My Obsessions was a guest poster today on Twitips – an online guide to getting more out of twitter. Her article was entitled as above.. “5 Commonly Misunderstood Things on Twitter” and in it she talks about the 5 common things people tend to lose track of – the things they don’t do because they’re not reminded of their functions.
Her list is here.. but I’ll refer you to her actual article for the details behind each item:
- Starting a Tweet with an @
- Putting your Twitter profile address in the URL field
- Thinking the new RT feature is untrackable
- Asking all of Twitter to “DM for more info”
- Not knowing how to favorite or “star” a Tweet
If you spend any time at all on Twitter, this article is worth a read.
