Tek Talk Archives description:
Jonathan Mosen will be on the next Tek Talk to discuss his new book
"Tweeting
Blind".
"Tweeting Blind" is a comprehensive look at the world of Twitter from a
blindness perspective. There's something in "Tweeting Blind" for everyone,
whether you've yet to get yourself a Twitter account, or you're a power user
looking for advanced tips and tricks. With "Tweeting Blind" to hand, you
have
the much-requested reference guide that makes sense of Twitter.
"Tweeting Blind" begins by explaining what Twitter is, and why you might
like
to become a part of it. It then guides you step by step through the sign-up
process on a range of platforms.
Twitter is a highly customisable social network. "Tweeting Blind" takes you
through the ways for you to configure Twitter to your liking, including a
discussion about whether protecting your Twitter updates is the right choice
for you.
To be comfortable and effective on Twitter, it's helpful to understand its
terminology and etiquette. There's an entire chapter explaining what all
that
Twitter jargon means, and how to conduct yourself in a way that helps you
fit
in.
Did you know Twitter offers a powerful interface useable entirely by text
message? That means even if you don't have the latest smartphone, you can
still be a Twitter power user on the go. "Tweeting Blind" devotes a chapter
to showing you how to make the most of this feature, whether it's your
primary means of interacting with Twitter, or for use to receive updates
instantly from people and organisations important to you.
The remainder of "Tweeting Blind" looks at Twitter on a range of platforms.
You'll find chapters on using Twitter via the Web, with Windows clients, the
Mac, iOS and Android. A wide range of clients is discussed, helping you
choose the one that's best for you on each platform, and providing basic
operating instructions.
The book is written in an easy-to-follow, conversational style, with a
little
humour in the mix. The book succeeds in making the process of learning about
Twitter both informative and fun.
In his presentation, Jonathan will share a few hints and tips about Twitter,
and answer your Twitter questions.
