Twitter Peeps

Ok, so do I really need to jump on this bandwagon?  I have a BB so I can do it from my phone, but will I get a ton of alerts if I follow people?

I looked to see about a username this morning and one of the suggestions is McShaina, which made me LOL.

 

Re: Twitter Peeps

  • I love twitter.I use it mostly for my blogs, but I use it for other reasons, talk to friends, enter give away, etc.  You can select who to get mobile alerts from, so no your phone won't be going crazy! I think you should use McShaina!!
  • I hate thinking of user names!

    Well they just took my name and gave me some suggestions, so maybe you'll see one you like.

     

  • I just put twitter on my phone and I have yet to get any notifications.  I might set it up only to receive them from friends and not celebs/news i follow.  I also agree that I don't want to get a million notifications every time CNN posts something.

    Also I like McShaina.  I think you are stuck with it now!

  • I'll post it on FB

  • Alright, consider me peer pressured, McShaina is not on Twitter.

    I am following one place, Busch Gardens b/c I've heard they tweet ticket deals.

    But so far no notices on my phone.

  • SumHo is appropriate for you Summer ;)

    I set it up so I don't get alerts unless I am mentioned in a Tweet.

    I suspect this is what they will recommend!

  • I don't get any notifications on my phone. I'm sure I miss a few great deals here and there, but I'd rather not have the interruption all the time.

    my read shelf: Brianna's book recommendations, liked quotes, book clubs, book trivia, book lists (read shelf)

  • I don't think it's a secret that I'm a twitter addict. Several of my friends have their phones alert them when someone mentions them, but that would drive me CRAZY! I just check it abut every hour or so.

    Oh, and (I tell all new twitter people this) I totally understand if  you don't want to follow me-- I can be overwhelming if you're not following very many people because I tweet a lot and I definitely don't want to eat up every bit of someones stream. 

    Also, a fun twitter directory to browse for celebs/media/random interesting people to follow is: http://wefollow.com/

    And, if you decide tweet from your computer, I recommend either:

    HootSuite or TweetDeck (tweetdeck is my favorite)

  • So if I'm following someone/something and they are tagged then it shows up in my feed?

    I am seeing some randoms that I know I'm not following, but it looks like the tagged things I am following?
