My favorite was the one about being specific. Sometimes Twitter is so fast, you just tweet without giving it much thought first. Anyhow, I will keep these things in mind when the urge to tweet hits me again. There are some great tips here. My favorite was the one about being specific.

Let me back up again. Instead of being a Leigh Teabing, you must choose...but choose *wisely*....your tweets. You never want something negative associated with your Twitter ID. (and points go to whomever gets that Crusades reference. :) ) I adored The Da Vinci Code, manfully worked my way thru Angels and Demons, perused The Lost Symbol, and wait a sec, this post centers on Twitter.

He does this because the truth would make his stories laughable instead of believable. Do not do this to your followers. Give them the truth when you are trying to convince them of your point of view or a product you offer. Do not promise $1 million tomorrow for doing what you say. Be straight up and they will trust you. :-) Demons: Dan Brown often makes up facts to back his story. He does this because the truth would make his stories laughable instead of believable.

Angels who link to useful information are sharing the love and make their halos bigger…" This is true in all forms of web content, not just tweets!
