The 10 Twitter Commandments

January 16, 2010 · Comments

Here are the 10 twitter commandments I created and follow to keep me, my followers and twitter happy:
  1. Thou Shalt Not Use Anything Other Than Your Real Name
    Not something like “imskills4u”…though “McLovin” is pretty badass :P
    .
  2. Thou Shalt Not Follow People Who Don’t Have A Photo
    Of their face, not some supermodel’s butt :P
    .
  3. Thou Shalt Not Send Welcome DMs With Links.
    You can forget about people reading your tweets if you do.
    .
  4. Thou Shalt Not Tweet Promotion After Promotion.
    Twitter was not made for hardselling customers.
    .
  5. Thou Shalt Not Bulk Unfollow People.
    The mysterious twitter god may suspend your account.
    .
  6. Thou Shalt Not tweet About Religion Or Politics.
    This will only alienate many of your followers.
    .
  7. Thou Shalt Not Shorten Words Or Use “txt” Language.
    ths wll onli lse credibility 4 u… blud
    .
  8. Thou Shalt Not Use The Default Twitter Background.
    Be creative, get your face on that background!
    .
  9. Thou Shalt Retweet Tweets You Find Interesting.
    And always thank people for retweeting yours!
    .
  10. Thou Shalt Have A Link And Interesting Bio.
    Let people know what you do for a living and link to your website.

Please comment with any other rule suggestions or if you disagree :)
