Twitter and I


My Twitter account:

Twitter is one of the most interesting social networking sites where you can meet people all over the world. At first, I found it difficult to use it due to the limited 140 characters you should stick to. However, I used to understand that you have to include only important and relevant points. Through this task, I get to know that Twitter is not only about telling people what you want or what you are doing, but to share relevant information about the world issues. It is also about raising awareness on issues that is affecting the world whether in a positive or negative way and this is becoming something very viral. The use of hashtags is the most interesting part of it because it clearly highlights what you want people to see and with the use of hashtags, it facilitates the search for the same type of issues around the post
 by various people.

However, for my blog, the first hashtags that I chose was #foodandwine. I chose this one because it appears very often and is very relevant to my post and my future posts. #foodandwine is becoming very an obsession among this new generation. Every one wants to know which one is the best for each food. People are coming up with the idea that there is such a thing as the ideal food and wine best match. Thus, the article that I tweeted and re-tweeted talks about why there is an obsession about food and wine pairing. Unfortunately, up to now I no one re-tweeted my post but I am waiting for any notification that I can get. This is a copy of the tweet: “Just Because wine enhances the food, the food enhances the wine!!! #FoodAndWine http://bit.ly/1VUFnzx  via @Moneyweb


Moreover, my second hashtags is about #wineandhealth, this one is very interesting though the article is short, it contains a quite lot of information about wine and health. This hashtags is the second, which appears most regarding my blog. We get tired of hearing that alcohol is dangerous for the health, but if you drink it moderately (2 glasses per day), it can be good for your health. Regrettably, this one too has get any comments or re-tweets, but I am looking forward for any notification that I get can in the future. This is a copy of my tweet: “People say that wine is good for health!!! Read about it :) #wineandhealth #redwineandhealth http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/health/red-wine-weight-loss-aid-883353.html …
