Day 1 - Intro and First Tweet

Twitter is just a tool and can be used for good or bad. You need to figure out how you want to use it. I want you to be intentional about your tweeting. For this, I will ask you to write down your thoughts on specific subjects. You should keep a notebook or note-taking application handy.

For today, please reflect on and write your answers to these questions:

  • What are your goals with Twitter?
  • What is the theme of your Twitter stream?
  • List five Twitter handles that you enjoy or would like to emulate.
The last question might be hard if you haven't used Twitter. I'm assuming you are already signed up for Twitter. If not, sign up now.

Finally, we are going to start tweeting. Tweet something like this:

"I'm working on my tweet game. You might notice some differences in the next 30 days. #twitter4devs"

Note: I suggest you use the hashtag #twitter4devs for the tweets in this course. It will allow you to search for your tweets easily. However, it will also allow you to search for others going through the course and be inspired by them. (You will see that a lot of this course is about inspiration).
