▪Your picture: you should definitely have some sort of picture people seem to respond better to actual photos.
▪Your bio: it is very helpful to include keywords here because often, when someone is deciding whether to follow you or not, this is where they get their first impression of you.

To begin my suggestion is for you to decide what you want to use your
account for ie. collegial conferencing, school based information, or personal
connections.

Tweeting• You’re limited to 140 characters so you
may find you begin to choose your words carefully.
• This usually leads to more direct updates.
![Page 26: Social media 101 november 2011](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051617/559d14051a28abf3018b46b7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Some of the basics• @REPLIES If you start a tweet with
@(username), this will automatically land in that person’s @replies folder. You’ll notice that if you reply to something someone said, your message will automatically start with this @…address. These tweets will show up in your friend’s tweet-streams only if they have chosen to see @replies - this is a setting you can control.
![Page 27: Social media 101 november 2011](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051617/559d14051a28abf3018b46b7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• DM stands for Direct Messages. These are private messages that most people choose to use to introduce themselves or to bring an elongated reply conversation over to a more appropriate venue. You can DM someone from your DM folder or from the sidebar of their profile page, but only if they are following you.
• RT This stands for ReTweet. If you want to share what someone else tweeted, it is only polite to give them credit by including RT @(username) somewhere in your message.
![Page 28: Social media 101 november 2011](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051617/559d14051a28abf3018b46b7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Hashtag - #
• A hashtag is just a short character string preceded by a hash sign (#). This effectively tags your tweets allowing people to easily find and aggregate tweets related to the event being covered.
• Also, Twitter hashtags are completely ad hoc. There’s no registration process it’s nothing more than a convention. Just go for it and see what happens.
• #burnabysouth, #gorebels, #sd41

Etiquette• Some people say that it is polite to follow
anyone who follows you, others choose to follow very small, select groups.
• I want to be able to have conversations with
people.
