As everything in live, it’s important for everyone to practice some manners. It could be in the work, with your friends, with your family but also you can practice some online manners.

This is “Twitter Manners” by me, @ArleSPinzon

First of all it’s important to say that Twitter is actually one of the most important social platform to share and also to get information. On the twitter platform there’re different types of information. You can find Spam, social information, celebrity’s information, local’s information, and so on.

What’s the basic problem? People doesn’t practice some “Twitter Manners”.

Things that are important for you to learn about twitter:

- Follow Friday is not a day to share your contact list, it’s a day in which you share the people you really consider interesting so people can follow them.

- There’s a “reply” mode in which people can reply or comment a tweet of a friend or twitter user. If you use “ RT @fulano Apples are fruits // LOL.. that’s cool” it’s going to be a little annoying. If you want people to look at the tweet you comment, you should reply to the tweet and then your twitter friends would click on “in reply to @fulano” under your tweet and see the original tweet. The other way is that you click on “ReTweet Button” so your contacts look at it.

- FYI: If you write “ @username <and here you put the tweet>” your friends only would see the tweet if they’re following your friend. If you write “Hello @username how’re you?” it’s because you want your friends to see what you write to @username.

- If you see something weird on a friend’s tweet, for example: “I lost 10 punds with this OMG http://linkthatisobiouslyavirus.com” do not click it, you’re not affecting only you but your twitter friends.

- Try your tweets to be interesting, it’s better the quality of your tweet than the quantity.

- Do not tweet so often about trends, like for example people who tweet about “#IRemember” and they write an autobiography of their life. (People could unfollow you)

- Do not ask for followers, if your tweets worth you should get followers in any time.

- Have FUN! but remember, the basic of twitter is to share information. Share the information you like to update your friends in your daily life, about what’s happening on your country, about celebrities, etc.
