2) Be interested and you will be
interesting
When engaging in conversation with people,
do you like it when a person only talks about
themselves, what they do and how they do it?
For most, the answer is no. Social media is no
different.

3) Make every character count
A tweet has a maximum of 140 characters, so
it’s important to be able to condense your
message down and still make it interesting.
Most users enjoy witty yet informative
conversation so cater your tweets to include
both.
