Twitter Rules

Yes,It does. Twitter is now ruling the web by asking a simple question-"What are you doing?".Twitter believes that constraint inspires creativity.The 140 character constraint has really done that.

Twitter has some rules.Twitter does not allow any kind of html tags in the 140 characters.However,links to other websites are shown in the tweets.There is also a limit on this.The url will be converted to a small url if the link is more than 30 characters in length.The url is shortened by using tinyurl or bit.ly.You are also free to use these great applications for shortening the URL's or to hide the original URL's.

Twitter does not allow you to post pictures directly in the tweets.You can post URL's of the pics uploaded on any website while most of the Twitterers use twitpic.Twitpic is a third party application and is not a part of Twitter.

You can send replies to any Tweet or message by a user by appending your message to @username.For example you can reply to me by telling
"@NeoTracks Thanks for the Twitter post".You can search all the replies to you in your home page once you login into twitter.

You can also send a Direct message to a user by appending the message after D username.For example, you can send a direct message to me by typing "D NeoTracks Are you meeting me today?".Direct messages do not appear in your tweets.This message is sent only to the user you have specified.They get delivered to the users device if any.


Below the Tweets you can see the text like posted from web,posted through text,.etc.After Twitter has become a powerful application,there are many applications developed for using Twitter on many devices.Thus twitter can be posted from the web or by text messaging or by any other application that uses Twitter API.
