I encourage twittering! It’s fun, and its good marketing for your blog! Sign up at Twitter.com. Fo’sure your first order of business will be to follow me! @naumanx2, and then ya know.
You might even be able to ask questions there, since ya know, we do it! (unlike the posting around here!) Sorry ’bout the posting bit… I got a little carried away. But no worries. I’m carried right back.
1. Sign up for twitter
2. Upload this great plugin: Twitter Tools, and then you can put your tweets in the sidebar of your blog.
3. For Firefox, use TwitterFox addon to add or read tweets from the status bar of your browser. (If you use Internet Explorer, you really should take my advice and go here.)
4. Then go find a pretty icon like these: Twitter Icons, and upload it to Photobucket.
5. To put in your sidebar, copy and paste this code to a Text Widget (Found under “Appearance” in the 2.7 version):
Replace the red text with your twitter name, and the green text with the direct link of that twitter image you put in photobucket. If you want your image to line up next to another item, insert this
float:left;in the style quotation marks (in blue).
Any problems? Leave a comment and I’ll answer them. Happy tweeting!
