Twitter is an amazingly powerful tool for promoting your Squidoo Lens, Blog, Business and more. So check out these cool ways to educate, inform, enlighten and amuse people. Just remember, you've only got 140 Characters so stay on your topic!
A Little Birdie Told Me...
1) Don't SPAM people. Very simply, we all know what it is...but sometimes it's easy to let a little slip in. The best way to lose followers is to drive them crazy with Spam.
2) Don't over do it. When Twitter asks, "What are you doing?" we don't need update every half-hour. Be relevant, resourceful and current and you'll make a lot of friends.
3) Don't insult, abuse, belittle or be a meanie.
