Re: Quickie on tweeting and retweeting
Hey,
Marlon here.
Listen, I asked you to retweet my blog post today. And here's
what Chris says:
"I enjoy your emails and would gladly help viral. However:
If I knew how to re-tweet, I would. tweet...email is new to me.
Sorry.

RESPONSE:
If you know HOW to Tweet, then go to my blog and just click
the RETWEET link next to an article.
That'll open up your Twitter and put in a little message you can
edit slightly and send.
So here's the secret of re-tweeting. All it means is that you
FORWARD someone's tweet to your Twitter list.
Twitter is basically a mini IM tool that lets you send out 120
characters or less messages to the folks who follow you on Twitter.
Here's how to get in the loop:
1. Go to http://www.Twitter.com
2. Click the big sign up button
3. Type in your name
4. Choose a Twitter name
This is what will appear after twitter.com.
Mine is: http://www.twitter.com/marlonsanders
You can go there and read my tweets (short messages) anytime.
5. Put in your password, email and type in the letters you
see in the thing we call a captcha.
6. Submit.
7. Now, go to twitter.com, click "sign in" and put in your
user name and password.
I don't remember but you probably first have to click some kind
of link they send to your email address for verification.
8. All you do to retweet on my blog is go to:
http://www.marlonsnews.com
9. Click the retweet link next to my article.
Edit what it says and click send. Remember you only have 120
characters.
10. I'm typing this in a hurry. So I can't remember if you
need to have followers first. Where do you get followers?
11. Now how to you tweet and retweet on Twitter itself?
The best way is by downloading and using the ultra cool tool
called Tweetdeck. Don't worry, it won't take any dough out of
your pocket to use.
