Before you begin

Twitter is the newest, and often the most misunderstood of the social networks we feature. It's been said that "being mad at Twitter is like being mad at a hammer", meaning Twitter is only useful if you understand how to use it as a tool. Don't get discouraged if you don't see immediate results, sometimes, for some topics, it takes time for the community to find you, no matter how much you do the right thing.
