    19. No More Excuses... Social media is a participation-based culture. You have to participate to get the most value. But, how much, how often, and how long you participate is entirely up to you.
    20. Setting Up Your Account
    21. Setting Up Your Account Go to www.Twitter.com Click on “Sign up now” Enter your full name Enter a descriptive username Enter a strong password Enter your common email address Answer the captcha, click on “Create my account”

Username and avatar # of people you are following Click on either to go to this person’s profile # of people following you The home feed Mentions feed How long ago something was tweeted Where the Tweet came from Tweet, of course! But about what?
    24. What’s in a Tweet? @ signifies the next word is a username @’s are used in @ Replies and ReTweets # signifies the next word is a hashtag d and a space, then a user name sends a direct message
    25. @ Replies @ Replies If a Tweet starts with @ - it is an “at reply”. You can click on an @UserName to go to that person’s profile. Whenever your name appears in an @ reply, it appears in your mentions feed. Example: “@LeoLaporte Hey Leo - caught your show - it rocks!” Only my followers (people who follow @ImNickArmstrong) who also follow @LeoLaporte will see the tweet. If you put more than one username, they will see the tweet too. Example: “@LeoLaporte @AmberMac - Rock on.
    26. ReTweets ReTweeting is sharing someone else’s Tweets with your network. It’s a cool way to show respect on Twitter! “RT” and “via” are synonymous Copy and Paste the text you want to share, and type RT @UserName at the beginning or the end of the Tweet - where username is the name of the original author (@TheVanguard here)
    27. Hashtags and Searches When you add # before a word, it becomes a Hashtag. Any tweet with that Hashtag in it appears in the results when you search for that tag.

You can Google search to see what a hashtag means.
