Thanks. This is great as I am on Twitter and could use these mini tutorials. I have linked my ar blog to Twitter and it's pretty cool!

This pulls it together very nicely - I am now a twitter addict and find many people still confused about it.

OK, I am also now on Twitter. You can follow me @engelvolkers

Thanks Stefan. I keep plodding along on Twitter - erratically. I book marked this as it looks like especially good info.

Stefan - Thanks for these links and this info. I've been on twitter about a week now and am just getting my feet wet. I'm trying to figure out how to add a "follow me" widget to my blog here on AR and to my web site. Are you aware of any info out there on that topic?

Thanks,

Ken
