Reply To use the @ symbol
So, if you want to create a response to someone on Twitter or send a message to that person in public, and you do not mind others knowing what you have written for him / her, do not forget to put the @ in front of the person's Twitter username. For example, @ username, meet you tonight!
For the transmission of messages, using DM
If you want to send a private message to MySpace users, you can find this DM function in your Twitter control panel. However, I do not remember that you can only direct message Twitter users who are just after.
To retweet, put RT
Sometimes you can find some tweets from other users are worth sharing. Therefore, we intend to share it with the list of followers. It is best if you can retweet the original tweets and give credit back to the original user. Just put the RT @ username before you publish it yourself.
to share photos, using TwitPic
Web 2.0 is all about sharing. Therefore, if you want to share photos via Twitter, you can opt to use TwitPic, the most popular image sharing service on Twitter. Go to twitpic.com and log in with your Twitter username and password. There are other Twitter image sharing services as well. They said they TweetPhoto (tweetphoto.com), Twitgoo (twitgoo.com) and Picktor (picktor.com ).
to categorize your tweets, use the hashtag #
When you create a group or specific keywords, you can use #. For example, # Obama will create a group that specifically mentions Obama. So, when you run a search on Twitter on Obama, it can easily monitor all conversations or tweets on that topic.
I hope that the article is in helping all to get an insight on how to use Twitter.
