Get more from your software.I’m very pleased to announce that my latest Lynda.com course, a revision of my 2009 Twitter course, is now online. Here’s the official description from the good folks at Lynda.com:

In Twitter Essential Training, author Maria Langer explains how to use Twitter, an online microblogging service that offers a way to share short bites of information instantly with others. This course covers how to sign up for a Twitter account, send and read Twitter updates (called tweets), and build a network of followers. The training also describes how to get the most out of Twitter by customizing an individual profile, setting privacy options, following trending topics, and tapping into third-party resources that make it easier to follow and send updates.

Topics Include:

  • Uploading an image or avatar to an account
  • Setting options to meet specific needs
  • Using lists
  • Sharing photos with friends and family
  • Adding Twitter feeds to web sites
  • Including hyperlinks in tweets
  • Following and blocking users

One thought on “Twitter Essential Training Now Online

  1. This looks like a really good course. I have been on twitter but don’t think that I am making the most of it.

    By the way, my husband is taking courses on lynda.com to learn web design and he is VERY HAPPY with it!
