Not sure where to begin?

1. Read Wikipedia’s page on twitter to understand the big picture.

2. Read this excellent article on how to enter the Twitter-verse. Decide on your strategy.

3. Sign up for a free twitter account. Hint: you might want to use an anonymous email address and username to begin. You can always delete it later. But DO set up an additional account using your real name or company name, even if you’re not using it at first. You’ll see why later.

4. Search twitter for friends, celebs, brands, news services that you’d like to Follow. Add them to your profile.

That’s enough to get started.
