Well Twitter has ways of informing us of how to do the profile, finding friends and all of that.
It's recommended that one posts a biography (biog) of themselves and a photo perhaps.
I haven't done any of that by choice but others swear by it.Remember to make your 140 letters sage of wisdom good and catchy wherever possible, to get notice.

I was discussing my frustration with a very close friend (both in real life and on facebook) and she suggested twitter as a better platform for me to be heard and improve my reputation. Now, the thing is, I’m not new to twitter; I’ve used the standard twitter web site both on my PC and on my Symbian phone for about four years. I’ve even used twitter through EasyChirp – easychirp.com and easychirp.org – as well as Tweetcaster and Tweetings for Twitter – both apps on android. But then, I know there’s much more beyond composing 140-character tweets. You must be able to and be ready to follow treads to your tweets, reply publicly and sometimes privately, among other things. How can a person who is totally blind be effective in all of these and even more required to be a success on twitter? I will be glad to know of your recommendations of ways to improve my understanding and use of twitter – including learning from web sites, books and other sources. Thank you. -- Regards Ayoola Stephen Efunkoya Communications Professional, Broadcast journalist and Accessible Technology Enthusiast/Trainer M.A candidate Department of Communication and Language Arts University of Ibadan Ibadan, Nigeria MOBILE: +234-802-944-9441; +234-809-964-9514 e-Mail: ayokoya2009@xxxxxxxxx SKYPE: ayoola.stephen.efunkoya Check out my profile and connect with me: Ayoola Stephen Efunkoya on LinkedIn <http://ng.linkedin.com/in/ayokoya> AyoKoya on Twitter <http://twitter.com/ayokoya> Ayoola Stephen Efunkoya on Facebook <http://facebook.com/ayokoya> ==================== The vip_students mailing list Manage account or unsubscribe: //www.freelists.org/list/vip_students Archives: //www.freelists.org/archives/vip_students Administrative contact: support@xxxxxxx ==================== =========================================================== The vip_students mailing list Manage account or unsubscribe: //www.freelists.org/list/vip_students Archives: //www.freelists.org/archives/vip_students Administrative contact: support@xxxxxxx===========================================================
