How to Find and Follow People on Twitter

Last week I posted a video on how to get started with Twitter, the popular social media application.

Of course, joining Twitter is just the beginning. Since Twitter is a social media application, it doesn’t get interesting until the conversation starts. The first step to having a conversation is listening; or in Twitter parlance, following people.

When you follow people you get their "tweets" (their posts of 140 characters or less) on your Twitter page or in your Twitter feed. You can follow friends, colleagues, industry leaders, or just interesting, funny people. To learn how to follow people, you can check out this video below, or watch "Twitter: How to Find and Follow People on Twitter."

And don’t forget to follow me, Rich Brooks, on Twitter!

    This is great to know. I just recently began using Twitter. I never understood the true power of the program until recently.

    Thank you very much for this information!

    Hi Rich, I'm hoping my WordPress blog will automatically send a Trackback to your 4 videos I linked from in my article "Twitter 101: Getting started and how to tweet" – but on the off-chance it does not, I thought I'd let you know "in person". The link is at: http://lindafarmer.com/2009/03/twitter-101-getting-started.html.

    THANKS for the great videos!
