how do you talk to just one person on twitter?

[forehowe123]

When you are on your home page and you see a twitt from someone that you'd like to respond to, move your mouse to the right of that message and click on the arrow. This will put that person's name in your update box and you can type in a reply.

You can also click on the choice direct message (to the right in the center) and move to a new screen. There's a pull down that lets you chose the name of the person you want to send a private message to. No one else will see this.

Here's a youtube video that demonstrates how to get going on Twitter. I hope it helps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYHUOESHpVk
