Twitter guide for beginners 2018

[@quadflopper1012]

I’ve watched a couple twitter beginner tutorials but none of them came even close to the level of detail and thoroughness that your video does. I recently found myself needing to connect directly with my ISP to resolve an issue before it escalates into a major problem and the only 3 options they provide are by phone, facebook, or through twitter. The phone option only made things worse and I’m morally apposed to anything involving facebook which left twitter to look like it was the logical choice but thanks to your concise and efficiently organized tutorial I know now what a ridiculous waste of time twitter is. I will admit though, the way you kept mentioning competition was starting to peak my curiosity but once I figured out what constitutes a gift in the world of twitter I came to the conclusion that whatever it is that qualifies as a competition in twitterdom will probably be just as obtuse. I will say though that you make a really good tutorial and your organizational skills are absolutely stupendous ……

I've had a twitter account for years and never really understood it or got to grips with it. This video really helped. Thank you.

Very well done. I am 60 and this video made more sense than anything else I have watched. Thanks, Kathy

[@pallavik5220]

This is the best detailed video on twitter for beginners or those who are new to twitter. Thank you keep up the good work.

[@lauraturner4797]

OMG! - This is exactly what I needed. Only just discovered my twitter etiquette has been horrendous. By using a few small tweaks on my settings and making a few other alterations in how I use it, it should transform my experience. Thank you so much.

[@carolynshanti4261]

Yes, it was like coming out in to the light after being in the dark and confused. Now I have much more understanding and can actually start enjoying it all. Thanks.

[@Godsrocker1970]

Great video. Precise and clear, but twitter is too confusing and overwhelming. So ty for helping me make a decision to tweet or not. I will stick with texting and 20 min a month on facebook.

Excellent summary for using Twitter! By far the best one I've seen to date. Thanks for providing the information.

Possibly the best, most complete and clear tutorials I've seen... for anything! thanks

Hello I am going to take care of my college group and this video helped me a lot. Thank You!

[@johnallegro8632]

Very though tutorial and easy to follow. Twitter changed some format but it's easy enough to work around it. Thanks for the lesson.

[@jonathansimmonds5784]

The fact that it takes you 30 mins to tell a beginner how to do it just goes to prove how fecking difficult it is!! I created an account 18 months ago, I've been trying to make sense of it ever since, I've tweeted (I think) many BBC people but not a clue if they've received it or replied!! I'm sticking to email, at least you know it has been sent, the email server tells you so.

[@PAFloridian]

Great vid. One thing I didn't see covered or maybe I missed it, was how to efficiently embed a youtube video into a tweet. I'm new to twitter and seem to be doing something wrong. My vids never look as good as the more established twitter users. I've looked everywhere and can't find a good explanation into what i'm doing wrong.

[@andreadimmick8105]

If you change your username after youve been tweeting for a while (only a month) will you be found by others, say, comps already entered?

[@SuperluckyDi]

Andrea Dimmick it doesn’t affect your followers, and for a competition entry if you’re chosen as a winner the promoter will see a reply or tweet coming from your new username (because all your existing tweets will now be from that username) so they can reply to that. But some companies do make notes of entries as they come in, so they might announce your old username as a winner. To ensure you don’t miss these, do a search on your old username for at least the first month or two after changing it!

[@rawbiz2432]

[@capecyn8716]

Thank you! Clear, concise, no extraneous chatter, loved it! And with a British accent to boot! (We Americans love the accent!)

[@jameskeough4620]

Good job, Di. Nice pacing and great info. Covers many topics. One tip: At intro, either find another room or place yourself non-parallel with the back solid wall which is providing too much reverb.

[@SuperluckyDi]

Thanks James! I'll hopefully be doing the 2021 update of these guides soon and will try and improve everything!

[@myrabenson8579]

New to Twitter, thank you for a whole lot of nice details!

[@mjhoop5141]

I'm old and slow. None of my brit relations talks as fast as Di does. I understand the need to fit a lot into a short time, but is there a post that goes more slowly. Maybe one or two issues at a time? This is a really nice post, it's me that's the problem! Hoping to get better at it after the past couple of years fiddling around. Thanks Di.

[@SuperluckyDi]

Mj Hoop thanks for the comment! If you check the video description you’ll see a link to download a PDF file which maybe you could look at or print out, that gives you more guidance!

[@gregzeng]

Use a web browser with a speed control for playback speed. Also use a auto-text-subtitle add-on. I prefer a Chromium based web browser. The two needed add-ons are: 1) KZbin Playback speed control 2) ... not sure how my browser added speech sub-titles ...

[@lorettayoung3088]

[@monie948]

how do you find the original story of a tweet of a tweet of a tweet? bc I get notifications of a response to one of my tweets (to an original entry abt a story), then I respond to it. then what happens is we have a conversation but I cannot find the original story that started the conversation in the first place. that being said, I will have responses to tweets where I can't go back and see what I said, and what the topic is.

I'm grateful for your time. Thank you.

[@FrantasticFrantasy]

Good instruction. I'm learning and have gotten to the point where I want to post a tweet from another user to a third user. Any links for a tutorial on this?

[@SuperluckyDi]

Fran Tastic if you tap to retweet and then add a comment, tagging your friend’s name first in the comment that will work! Or you can send the tweet directly by Direct Message to a friend, tap the envelope underneath it to do this!

This was EXTREMELY useful!!! Thanks so much! 😊

I'm sorry but the change to the desktop display has rendered this tutorial obsolete - nothing matches and I am at my wits end trying to find a proper beginners guide. Your pace and attention to detail is great but the content is rendered useless. I'm desperate , can you help me?

Sorry John, I've not had time to record new tutorials, but I'm sure if you do a search 'Facebook for beginners 2021' you'll find some suitable KZbin guides!

Hi Lenny! This video is now 2 years old and the Twitter layout has changed! On the mobile app, tap your photo then PROFILE > EDIT PROFILE and then just type in your new display name next to NAME! On web Twitter, go to twitter.com/settings/profile and type it in! If you want to change your username, you need to go to SETTINGS > ACCOUNT > USERNAME or go to twitter.com/settings/screen_name in a browser to do it.

[@LewieLeway]

Great guide but it doesn't answer my question (I don't think). Let's say you get a notification, it's a reply to one of your replies to a conversation. The reply is vague, not mentioning what the original conversation is about and you have no idea what they are referring to. Can you get back to the start of that conversation? I would have thought there would be a button to click to send you to the origin.

[@SuperluckyDi]

If you tap on the notification to go to that tweet, then swipe down on the screen and release it shows you the tweet it was replying to. Just keep swiping to get to the start!

[@LewieLeway]

@@SuperluckyDi Thanks for the reply.Crikey, how crazy. I think I've got it. All the writing turns blue like I'm highlighting it but it seems to get there. Just how difficult is it to place a 'button' in the corner? Sheeesh!

[@LewieLeway]

@@SuperluckyDi Bum. Nope, so far I can only get back to a post with no replies. So let's say I replied to someone who had replied to a conversation about how poorly set out Twitter is :-) and someone replied and I replied and someone else replied, I swipe, swipe, swipe but never get back to the actual Twitter is poor post, only to the persons post that I replied to. Work that one out if you can!! ;-) So if their original post doesn't mention the original subject line I have no clue what it was all about. Kaboooommmm!! Head explodes

Twitter is fantastic. But, when too many people use it, it gets overloaded then nobody can use it till things get back to normal chatter. At the moment,(April 1, 2019-11:06 AM), KZbin is wide open, but Twitter is not!
