Composing a Twee
In this video I’m going to walk you through how to post a simple text tweet and share it with your followers. Your tweets are how you communicate with people by letting them know what you’re up to, sharing your thoughts, an image or a blog post you found to be interesting. This is what makes Twitter such a great Social Networking site.

Written Tutorial
From the homepage, you can compose a Tweet using the box at the top of the Timeline, or clicking on the “Tweet” icon with the feather at the top right.
While you are typing a Tweet, you will see a number that starts at ‘140’ and goes down as you begin typing. Your Tweet is limited to 140 characters. If you exceed the limit, Twitter will not allow you to post.
Once you are happy with your post, simply click on “Tweet”!
Your Tweet will now be displayed on your profile and will begin showing up in the timelines of those users who are following you.
