Title: How does twitter work?
Post by: Cerveza mas fina on December 08, 2012, 05:48:34 PM
So out of curiosity i installed twitter (yeah im a caveman).

How does this work? Its a giant newsfeed right? You add people you want news from and then you get their posts right?

Im adding some people from here like dc and himumu, borys too.

You got it.

My twitter feed is made up of various lists:

and ends up looking like this:

I suggest using twitter for phone rather on computer. it's less fun on computer.

I have some people who follow journos from different industries and the stuff they retweet is so cringeworthy sometimes.

Pretty much use it as a mass texting service. Make things like "What's the plan for NYE" a lot easier when you don't have to text 20 different people
