Ian, did you set up an account? And if so, are you following me? And if not, why not? ;)

I don't really get Twitter, am on there and am keeping an eye on how things unfold.

Is it bad Twitter etiquette (Twetiquette?) to reply to those posting messages to the CMS team, and linking them to @Team_Moyles?

If It Twends (or whatever) tomorrow, can someone please do a screen shot, as I can't access at work :(

PS. do the wind up merchants on there have Twattitude? ;-)

I'm @SallyAnnely but must admit I don't really get it, and am not confident I'm doing it properly.

Make sure you do a quote retweet rather than a normal retweet as the hashtag won't count. Just add something to the end of a quote retweet to make it your own. :D

Hoping this will be good fun! I will be tweeting from 6:20am-ish all the way through. I'm @beingautistic if anyone wants to follow me!

Bugger, just pressed the retweet button to see what happened - evidently I have - and there's a green arrow against the post.

How would I "Quote Retweet"?

Sally A wrote:Tunster, you are talking in foreign - what the heck is a quote retweet?

Basically, a normal retweet just links the tweet in your timeline (list of tweets). When you quote retweet, it will copy the text and surround it with quote marks into a new tweet. You can then add a comment to it.

How are you tweeting? Most twitter clients give you the option unless you're using the twitter website.

Dunno, I guess I'm on the Twitter website.

Can't see an option to quote.

(You can tell I'm in the older R1 demographic can't you :D ).

Damn, the twitter website doesnt have the option. If you copy the tweet you want to retweet, plonk some "quotes" around it then add your bit. :D

I don't have the option to do a quote tweet.... yet, using the twitter website on my phone at the moment as no app is available. Waiting for my iphone to arrive though, so should be able to do them in the future!

Is this #TeamMoyles just gonna be a one off? OR gonna keep going? Daily? Weekly?

But if you retweet someone's tweet, there isn't an option to edit and add quotes...

Most serious tweeterers don't use the Twitter site to tweet, they use a 3rd party client. Mine has the option to RT with a comment:
