TwiFer -‐ Defini4ons � Tweet -‐ When you hit send on your 140 characters on twiFer it’s called a tweet or twee4ng � Handle – your TwiFer name @GibbonsDigital – balance short with descrip4ve. � Follow – this is simply the act of adding someone to your list of people you are following – this
makes their tweets show up on your homepage. � Replies – this is what it is called when someone writes a tweet directly at your handle -‐
@GibbonsDigital cool post today blah blah – this is oten an invite to engage with a follower. � Retweet – this is a tac4c of republishing someone else’s tweet – the original tweet along with
author stays in tact, but you are basically showing someone’s tweet to your followers – many people find this a great way to add content and acknowledge good stuff from the folks they follow
� DM – this is a message that is sent directly to another user. They must be following you for you to DM them, but this is a very useful tool for private messages and generally a good choice when you start going back and forth with someone on something your en4re base of followers might not find interes4ng.
� Hashtag – this is a way people categorize tweets so that others might use the same tag and effec4vely create a way for people to view related tweets – it will something like #marke4ng – more on this in search.

What is it? � Pinterest is a “virtual pinboard” that lets people share anything and any topic on the web that they find interes4ng and beau4ful – e.g., pictures, quotes, recipes, etc.
� Conceptually similar to social bookmarking sites. � Content is organized in “Boards” and organized in categories.
� Each piece of content is called a “Pin”
