New Drawing - $200 TE Shopping Spree

[administrator]

Ok, I've wanted to "tweet" something for a while, does TE need to follow me for my tweet to show up on the @teamestrogen tweet. Gawd, "tweet" is such a fun word... but anyway, how do I know if I successfully tweeted the tweet?

There's a link at the top of the contest entry form that does a twitter search for all tweets containing "@teamestrogen". Or you can use http://search.twitter.com/ and enter the query manually.

Twitter's search feature can be a bit buggy. I saw the tweet on your page, but it isn't showing up in the search yet. I'd give it a few minutes (hours?) and see if it shows up -- I'm sure it will eventually.

Like JoAnn, I also need a bit of a "Twitter 101". I'm sure there's a FAQ somewhere, but right now I'm pretty hopeless. I don't even know how to follow anyone! I guess I did when I first signed up since I show as following '1', but I don't remember how I did it!

Boy, do I feel silly -- anyone care to enlighten this newbie?

I really don't need any more stuff..

Following is very easy. You can use the search function and find someone. From their page, like this one ----> http://twitter.com/teamestrogen
See how there is a little box under the name that says FOLLOW. Click on that, and you are following Teamestrogen.

I'm not all that well versed, but that one I could answer.

I've been on twitter for more than a year, in fact, I'm thinking of quitting my job to become a professional twitterer so if anyone needs any help, feel free to PM me.

Thanks PG! I actually figured it out today before I made my way back to TE.

I began with Lance as roadbiker gave the link to his tweet acct. Then I saved it in my favorites. Little by little I just kept clicking on twitter links that I came across. I would click that I was following them never knowing that everytime they tweeted it come up on my page.

Yes there is a help to see how to use it all. I guess I should find the time to read through it.

I am glad I have company in not being twitter savy lol

I found this link for beginners - http://www.tomrafteryit.net/15-twitt...for-beginners/

It seems if you use the @username, the post shows up on the username's reply tab.

Well, someone's got the hang of this twitter entry thing, to the tune of 50+ tweets.

[Jo-n-NY]

Well, I think I did it correctly. I guess I won't know if it worked unless we get a reply.

Thanks for all the posts of explanation. I do have a better understanding of how it works.
