I Tweet occassionally (TweetDeck links Twitter and FB accounts), but use it more as a news/entertainment ticker.
I find I go to websites less and reference twitter for specific real time info.
And, hashtags are just ways to create subject matter thaat people can follow. So, for example, I just tweeted about Zander destroying something and added #nokittyno. That means if you search under the hashtag, all of the tweets using that hashtag will come up.
For West Coasters, it is one way to get updates to live TV. You can do #BB13 and get tweets that include that hashtag.
Because of the size limit, there are also link shortners that are built in, and the links are just usually standard hyperlinks to whatever article is posted.
Alot of blogges use Twitter to now post/link to new postings/articles.
I hope that makes sense.

YWIW - not even a little bit.
But, I don't care, so it doesn't matter
Good morning peeps and peepers. I already hate being here.
Good morning peeps! More rain on the way today. Thunder storm warnings until noon. I haven't been this wet since I left Thailand.

Hey - what happened to the thread title? Did it get washed out? Damn rain.
It looks that way Moony...damn rain! Today is Flu Shot day and I forgot to wear a short sleeve shirt..double damn!!!
I figured that Boobs just didn't like what I changed it too.

Where's Girly? She had magical powers the last time it went wonky.
SOMMSY, I always enjoy your thread titles. Not sure where Girly is....perhaps selling her gold?
Is her bookie looking for her again?
Another dreadful hair day.
Quiet in the office today with so many out for the holiday. Hope it stays nice and calm so I can get some things done... or not.
I vote for or not. We've missed you.
Awww... I've missed you guys, too.
I promise not to keep bringing it up - but Dad passed on the 29th of August. A month ago today. It's been both the longest month of my life, and has disappeared in a flash. So much more profound than I ever could have imagined.
So, I think a bit of play today is needed!
Has anyone else gotten into the new show "Revenge"? It's one of those shows that you actually are rooting for the bad person. She's like the female Dexter without the killing. I'm hooked!
Somms and I were just posting about it in the Fall 2011 TV thread.
LOVE it.
Addy - **hugs and champagne**
Boobs - it is good. I watched the premiere and have last night's waiting for me when I get home. It has serious potential, though I am totally not buying the actress in the role. Her "evil" face just seems forced.
I just posted about my LOVE for Revenge on the TV thread, Boobsie.
*clinks glass with Tink* Thanks for the hugs!!
I like Emily VanCamp in the lead role - the right mix of innocence (needed to pull everything off) and strength. I love the guy cast as Nolan Ross. Perfect. And Madeleine Stowe is deliciously ice-cold.
My favorite new show of the season!
Just gave it a thread of it's own!
Makes me want to grab a glass of champagne when I watch it.
(well... everything makes me want to grab a glass of champagne, but this show sort of sets the scene!)
By the way, it's National Coffee Day!
Well, Cheers!
And, on another topic - I am captivated by the Amanda Knox trial... Just captivated by it.
I'll be in the corner with my tea
