twitter............................?????????

[Andy Tips]

It's a Micro-Blogging platform - completely unlike Facebook.

You get 140 characters to share your thoughts. It's the quickest growing social network online right now and you can choose to follow other people and see what they're up to, or post yourself and others can choose to follow you.

I've met lots of new friends on Twitter, many of which I've met in person now. I've got new business from people on Twitter and when I post about something new on my blog or website - lots of my followers come and check it out, so it's great for getting traffic to your sites too.

You can also post links, so although I don't do it often, I've sold a lot of stuff on Twitter too.

It's a great way to meet new interesting people and find people online that you never would have anywhere else.

You can follow me just by joining (it's all free) and finding my profile (twitter.com/andyhenry) and selecting follow.

There are rumours that Twitter will start adding features which they'll charge businesses to use, but right now everything is free.
