Question about twitter!? - 夜 - 12-12-2012 10:19 PM

Okay, i want to know how you send a message to someone on twitter... i can't seem to figure it out.
Say if someone i'm followings name is 'yourmom' lol. uhmmmm would i just type @yourmom??? please help.!!

And my second question is: I've already signed up my phone, i get messages from it, but how do you reply to someone on your phone? Is it the same thing??

p.s. you dont have to answer both (:

p.s.s. my user-name is ItoshiiHito. Please feel free to follow me. I would appreciate it alot Big Grin pleaseeeeeeee

There's two ways of doing it.

1. On your update box, just type in @ followed by their username and your message after that and then click update (easiest and convienent way but best avoided it you are bad at spelling)

2. On your homepage, look to the right, above the search box, there are a few links. Find and click on the one saying Direct Messages. It willl load you to a new page and at that point you'll see a dropdown menu. It will list the users you are following, click on one of them and type in your message in the box below and click send. This method is more accurate as you won't have to worry about typos when typing in someone's twittername especially if its spelled all funky.

Sorry, can't answer your second question though, I don't have that app available on my phone :\
