How to talk twitter
■
Tweet: A 140-character message.
■
Retweet (RT): Re-sharing or giving credit to someone else’s tweet.
■
Feed: The stream of tweets you see on your homepage. It’s comprised of updates from users
you follow.
■
Handle: Your username.
■
Mention (@): A way to reference another user by his username in a tweet (e.g. @mashable).
Users are notified when @mentioned. It’s a way to conduct discussions with other users in a
public realm.
■
Direct Message (DM): A private, 140-character message between two people. You may only DM
a user who follows you.
■
Hashtag (#): A way to denote a topic of conversation or participate in a larger linked discussion
(e.g. #AmericanIdol, #TasteofChicago). A hashtag is a discovery tool that allows others to find
your tweets, based on topics. You can also click on a hashtag to see all the tweets that mention it
in real time — even from people you don’t follow.
