Twitter etiquette isn’t only about what you should do. Unfortunately, bad tweets and poor Twitter practices sometimes show up within microblogging communications. While you can’t really go horribly wrong on Twitter, you’ll make your life easier in the Twitterverse if you follow these guidelines:
When you first sign up and before you start regularly tweeting, don’t follow hundreds of people. If you follow someone, he checks out your profile to see whether he might want to follow you back; if he sees that you’ve tweeted once or twice and you’re following hundreds of people, he may think you’re just a spam account.
Start out slowly, following people you know and who know you. Then, as you start tweeting regularly, follow more people based on your interests.
Avoid using punctuation in your username. Typing punctuation on mobile devices is difficult.
Don't share information that you might regret making public.
Don’t send an update when a direct message is more appropriate — for example, when the update is meaningless to anyone except one person. If the person doesn’t follow you, you can send an update that contains her name, asking her to contact you over another medium.
Don’t feel the need to thank everyone publicly for following you. It’s a nice thing to do, but not always necessary.
Don’t think Twitter success has anything to do with your Followers count.
