I'm A Follower


I have joined TWITTER...actually to be honest, I joined Twitter a few years ago and still to this day, don't really know how to use it.  I see it a lot in the blogging world.  I like to enter different giveaways and stuff and most of the time, to get more entries, it says to 'tweet' daily.  

Of course, last night when I went to sign up for a new account, my email address was already in use...DUH, by me.  I had to follow these easy instructions on how to change my password.  When that was finished, I went to login and BOOM - from Twitter execs "Ooopss...we came across a technical error...please try again later" and there goes my night of exploring with Twitter.  

I don't know what kind of information I have to provide to people so they can "add me" (if that is even a part of Twitter...or is it "follow me"..I don't know)...anyways if anyone wants to do this, my username is just stacyjohnston.  I am not 100% sure of this yet as I cannot see my account right at this moment.  

Any tips would be greatly appreciated regarding this "tweeting" business!
Add me so I can follow you too!

I have a twitter account... I think you just added me!
I'm not as savvy as some, I basically use it to follow friends and a lot of entertainment stuff.
It's basically 'status updates' - you can respond to others, post pics, videos, links...

I've never really figured it out either, Stace - I post my blog links, and basically just follow some friends and LOTS of celebs and news outlets. Kind of a quick & easy way to keep up with what's going on in the world!

I was wondering how you always put your blog on your twitter thingy...I thought it was just automatic, like a setting I have not figured out from blog, something like linking twitter and blogger together or something - so you just link your blog to your twitter thing yourself

Oh yeah, totally just copy and paste the link, I don't know if there's a fancier way to do it. lol Most people who post things have short little links that have the word "bit" in them. I have no clue how to do that, either!!

Don't ask me... LOL... I got the app for my phone but that's as far as I've gone... :)
