Derek Cunningham Provides Tips UsingTwitter
by Derek Cunningham
Twitter is an important channel for us to connect immediately with members and keep them up to date on union activity, as well as sharing news and developments relevant to mental health services generally. You can follow PNA on Twitter to keep up to date.
If you're new to Twitter, here are the fundamentals you need to know!
Mention
Once you've signed up and chosen a Twitter username, you and others can mention the PNA in your Tweets by preceding it with the @ symbol, eg: I am a member of @PNA_IRL
Retweet
If you see a Tweet by us that you want to share , click Retweet below it to forward it to your followers instantly.
Hashtag
Users often prepend # to words in their Tweets to categorize them for others eg: "New research has been released into #skin #disease". Think of hashtags as the theme of your Tweet. Users can then click on a hashtag to see other similarly-themed tweets and find yours in search.
