How do you reply to updates on people's twitter? - rayrayras - 10-03-2012 10:24 AM
One of my teachers has a twitter that he uses to give us reminders for class, and I don't want to sound like a tard by telling him I have no freaking clue how to reply to his updates. Help?

type @ before the name. For example if your teachers user name was teacher, you would type @teacher and then your message
@teacher what was the assignment for tomorrow?
hope that helps!
p.s a lot of people don't understand twitter so Im sure your teacher wont think your a "tard"

@teacherName to reply directly to your teacher
D teacherName to send a direct message to your teacher
RT @teacherName to re post information from your teacher to anyone who is following you. RT stands for Re-Tweet and it is proper twitter etiquette to reference the original post.
Those are the most common ways to communicate with other twitter users.
