People ask me about Twitter because I’m doing it. I would love to tell them something insightful, wise and born of my months of tweeting. But really it’s something that you have to do to learn how to do it. And relax on demanding that you understand it.

I can share with confidence, some of the good connections I’ve made through participating. Inspired by the fun I’ve had on Twitter, I waxed a little poetical and what came of it is my #FollowFriday submission. #FollowFriday is a Twitter way to share your community with each others and those beyond your community.

How to Have Fun with Twitter

I read a formula for participating in Twitter. It was a good one, so I to follow it and write my tweets with the following in mind:

• Tweets should included almost equal parts: statements, replies and linking to others
• Links to personal work should number the least in your tweets
• Always be polite

If you’re still thinking about trying Twitter, do it. Have fun with it. And let me know what you think of it.

If you’re already tweeting, message me @sharils to let me know of your positive expriences.

I’d love to link to a Twitter post you write about it.
