This guide is for those of you who are pretending to act like Twitter is silly, but are really, secretly wanting to give it a try :) I thought it was the goofiest thing I'd ever heard of, but my snoopiness got the better of me and I spent a few months playing with it. I have found it to be a great way to get to know people who are thinking and exchanging information about ideas and topics I’m interested in.
So, if you’re just the tiniest bit curious, here is a very basic guide for what it’s all about. If you’re a hard-core Tweep, this isn’t for you.
