(15,682 posts)I keep thinking my first tweet should be important. Also, I don't think anyone would read it since I have no followers. I really need to figure out how all of it works first.

(51,907 posts)I am following 160 and being followed by 43. Some people automatically follow people who follow them, so you'll pick up a few that way. I specifically deselect tweeters who are boring and/or uninformative, even if they are following me.
There is a lot of good stuff to tweet right here on DU. Why not start with posts that strike you as original, new or just plain funny. I often tweet the photoshop of the day right off the bat.
