Thanks Kitty, When I have his profile up, how do i tweet at him..

BTW Kitty, Your new signature and lack of BB in it makes me realise it really is gone:bawling:

[MissKittyFantastico]

Type @IrrepressibleDH followed by your message.

Yeah I know, it pained me to have to change it.

Only a few months until CBB though. :thumbs:

I was hoping they would.

I read today that they are trying to sign up Boy George, Nancy Dell'olio (Sven's ex) and Macaulay Culkin.

Allstars would be much better. :rolleyes:

Once you are on his twitter page and have joined twitter if you move your mouse over a message two icons appear on the right of the message, click on the lower one that looks like an arrow this will open a text reply box, you have a character counter on top left of box which will count down to zero as you type, if you go over the count it wont send.

Hope that helps.

I have found that Twitter is more useful and fun the less people I follow (e.g. keeping it to a few favourite sources). There is quite a lot of spam and garbage on Twitter but it's quite fun if you manage to avoid it.

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

I am following 6 people. Marcus , KarlyandKenneth, Davina, Leigh Francis, Ben Stiller and Abi Clancy.
Anyone on here have it?

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

@ Vicky and Kitty. I think Allstars would be much better than Celeb but what Hm's would you want ?? and would they do it?

I got fed up with all the updates to my phone from Big Brother, so I turned it off in the end.

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

I didn't give my phone number to it

[Blink_Me]

I didn't give my phone number to it

You don't have to.

I'm not going to get updates to my phone from Big Brother ever again. It's like..... impossible to keep up with most of the time.

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

do you get much emails from them

[Blink_Me]

do you get much emails from them

Yeah. But when someone updates their Twitter from the person you're following (you have to have the device update on), you'll receive a txt to your phone pretty much straight away.

Twitter is probably one of the most annoying and confusing items on the internet. I have tried to locate where Karly and Kenneth and others that I have heard about, but to no avail. It is a waste of time trying to twitter.

I'm following 139people - mainly celebs. But that's because I run a celebrity gossip website.

If you have Facebook then basically, Twitter is the updates section of Facebook, where people write their status and you can reply to it etc. To reply to a "tweet" all you have to do is hover the cursor over the right hand side of the status and clicking the arrow. In your status box it will come up with "@(username)" then just type your reply after that.
If you want to send a direct message to someone just type in "@(username)" for instance, to send a comment to Davina you write @ThisIsDavina [your message here].

You "Follow" people to see their updates but they don't see yours, only if they follow you.

BB1-Craig Anna
BB2-Brian
BB3-Kate
BB4-Ray
BB5-Nadia Victor
BB6-Makosi
BB7-Nikki Aisleyne Pete
BB8-Samanda
BB9-Rex
BB10-Marcus Freddie

They are who come to mind...but probably more if I think about it a bit more.

I don't know what twitter is all about. Must be showing my age. I get a headache on it.

You have just added more confusion to my failure to understand twitter. I wish it was scrapped.
