Decker....the girls get more airy fairy and less substantial things....wispa, flake, buttons. You follow people who tweet stuff you're interested in. Other people can follow you. It means that people who have something to say but previously never had the means of broadcasting or publishing can building up larging followings of thousands of people. I tend to get all my news delivered to me via Twitter by following certain papers or journalists. Then you can follow celebs, friends, companies - it's a good way to try and have a dialogue with companies actually. I was going to suggest we tweet @mumsnet next week and ask for a retweet. If they agreed, it would get the Let Toys Be Toys message in front of thousands of others - including journalists. We could also ask for a #ff or Friday Follow which is a Twitter tradition where people suggest others follow a certain person or cause. If you get someone like Mumsnet doing an #ff for you, again you tend to pick up loads more followers. Thanks Ashes! I'm feeling a bit challenged socia media wise at the moment! I don't really use twitter that much and don't really understand how it's going to work. In fact, I'm feeling a bit and Are we going to increase our profile by following people that we think will be interested in our page, in the hope that they will follow us? Or do we blatantly tweet people inviting them to look at our facebook
