i haven’t made a secret of the fact that i was less than impressed by the micro-blogging format when twitter was first launched. that said, over time i have realized that i wasn’t annoyed so much with the platform, rather with they way some people were using it. once i started appreciating the platform, i came up with several innovative ways to use twitter while keeping in mind the dangers that come with the territory.

but before we even get to that, have a look at chris brogan’s newbies’ guide to twitter.

Roy Jacobsen asked if there was a newbies guide to Twitter. There might be, but for those of you who want a different perspective, I feel up for writing another one. So why not? DISCLAIMER: This is how *I* derive value from Twitter. You might do it differently. Here it is, a Newbie’s Guide to Twitter.

not only is the guide itself very concise and useful but the comments on the post are informative too.
