Twitter For Dummies
Twitter, the simple-to-use microblogging service, offers immense benefits for businesses and organizations. Fire departments, political candidates, and C0EOs have used Twitter to share up-to-the-minute information.
Laura Fitton, maybe better known by her Twitter handle — @Pistachio, has more than 10,000 followers on Twitter, and gives presentations on how to use Twitter to build business and personal opportunity. She’s joined by Michael Gruen and Leslie Poston to share Twitter expertise in Twitter For Dummies.
You’ll discover how to get set up on Twitter, build a follower list, and find a voice for your tweets. Then you’ll learn to use third party tools to link Twitter to other sites and incorporate it into business communication models. This book covers:
- The basics of signing up and creating tweets
- Following other users and adding followers to your own tweets
- Mastering the “Twecosystem” — the tools that tie Twitter to many other Web applications, including mobile devices
- Strategies for enhancing business communication, marketing, and networking opportunities with Twitter
Twitter For Dummies gets you up and running on this hot communications tool the fun and easy way.

Twitter For Dummies, not unlike AOL For Dummies, isn’t a book title. It’s a statement of truth…

And to think I thought you thought this was a silly title! Thanks for pimping our book, even if you did scrape the post copy from Amazon.
Cheers!
