Yes, this is the purpose of the direct message function. However, you both have to be following one another. Thanks.

Is it possible to exchange tweets privately with only one person and nobody could see those tweets except both of us?

I find that people take what you say on twitter so seriously that you have to treat it as if you were speaking in front of a giant sensitive crowd people. Think before you drink, before you go on twitter!

A dumb question, I’m sure, but here goes. I’m a writer who sits at my desk all day (mostly) so it doesn’t make a lot of sense for me to be getting notifications on my phone. But, on my desktop, do I really have to keep going into Twitter to check if somebody I follow has sent a new tweet? Is there no way to get a simple notification that appears on screen somewhere so that I know as soon as a new tweet has come through? From what I could see, you can only get email notifications for particular categories of tweets (eg mentions, retweets), not for the general garden variety tweet. Or is there something I’m missing?

Oh, and thanks so much for the guide.

You can do that if the blog commenting system allows it. Thanks.

Twitter sends a message to that user letting them know they have been mentioned. They are also able to go to the @ Connect tab and it will show when they have been mentioned.

Hi there. Very new to Twitter and this might sound stupid but when I want to leave a post on someone’s page, how come it doesn’t show up on their page and only mine? Get me? For instance if i say to a pal “@username i love you” – this doesn’t show on their page, right? So how are they meant to know when someone has tweeted them?
