I found the video below earlier today, and I think it does a great job of discussing some of the basic things to keep in mind when getting involved with twitter for the first time. If you watch this video, and don't get the humor, it is probably because you haven't spent a great deal of time using your twitter account yet. As you get used to the feel of the controls, you will be tempted with obsession over the thing. Don't it just isn't worth it. What other type of questions do you have about twitter that this video doesn't help with?
