How does Twitter work?

[neonbird72]

Retweeting: Retweeting is when you think someone's "tweet" is funny/clever/inspiring, you want to show it to your followers as well.

@: @ allows you to tweet to specific people. For example, since you follower Chad Ochocinco, you'd put @ChadOchocinco to directly tweet to him.

Lists: Lists are where you can put multiple people in a list. For example, you want to make an NFL list. You put "NFL" as the list name, then you can put NFL players into that list.

#: # allows you to hashtag something.

Replies: Replies can be answering a question or commenting on something someone else tweeted.
