    OK, I'm signing up now mate. It's asked my real name which I've entered and now it's asking for my username. Will my real name not show up like?

    You pick an @ name and a username in addition to giving your normal details. These can be what you want and the two names people will see on your account., many people use their full name.

    If you want you use this Twitter account in a professional capacity for networking and what not, I'd set up a second, not using your full name, for stuff you'll air casual opinions on and what not.

    This is me.

    <laugh> I've followed you back.

    Now you need to build your interests. If you like something, there's going to be a twitter account associated in some way offical or otherwise. ALS, roker report. are decent once as they like a bit of banter. You'll pick out normal fans who are amusing from the fanzine tweets, if they amuse follow them, build a world of banter. Funny as **** twitter.

    Off to give Lamine some truths about his agent.

    That promotes it to your followers, kind of spreading the word. So if you retweet something, it will come up on my twitter feed that you have retweeted it and i can see the details of what you've retweeted. It's how things begin to trend and spread. It's why Sky Sports are last to know. Things like transfer links spread like wildfire.

    So, if you said something that I liked and I thought other people should know, then retweet?

    If I wrote on your wall, would everybody see it?

    it does take time, because you're molding your experience. Custom building it for yourself. Have fun mate. It's a big world. Enjoy your exploration and your anonymity <laugh> Don't be getting yourself arrested though <laugh>

    yes

    no. If you tweet me, your followers can see it on their twitter feed, but not my followers, but if I respond it opens it up my followers twitter feed too. If you want to give yourself a massive platform, use a hashtag. Say you want to comment on a transfer link. your comment alone would only be visible to your followers on their twitter feed, or somebody would have to manually seek out you profile and go to your tweets. but use the comment and have the hash tag #safc in the tweet, it will go onto the #safc twitter feed.

    You can find that by simply searching #safc then click live to see the all the tweets coming in real time.

    https://twitter.com/search?f=tweets&vertical=default&q=#SAFC&src=tyah

    This where you'll find a lot of banter and arguements from people you don't follow.


    Remember, unless you set your account to private, anyone can view you profile and your tweet history. Just they have to access it manually

    It's there on your profile. You tweeted. It came up on my twitter feed because I follow you and because your account is not private I could unfollow you but still go direct to your profile and read the tweet on their.

    Go to your twitter feed. I'll tweet Borini and you'll see it.
