You know, the new “it” thing everyone is using – from Oprah to Ashton Kutcher to even your own Bingo Vega is on Twitter. Well, we’ve been on Twitter long before Oprah and other celeberties jumped on, but they have made it more exciting since.

What’s Twitter?

In a nutshell, Twitter is a free social networking service that allows people to send and read other users’ updates known as Tweets.

In 140 characters or less, the updates you share and update your followers is known as Tweets…okay, I’ll stop there. Maybe these two Videos will be more helpful:

And here’s another helpful video:

    Twitter is lame. Not worth the paper it is written on lol

  4. 4Joel on Jun 13, 2009 at 4:25 am:

    lol … have you given it a try though? It seems lame at first but once you start, you can't stop twittering with people you enjoy following. Plus, there's perks of being a twitter user along with a bingovegan member, as we'll be offering special prizes and bonuses to our twitter followers.

  5. 5Joel on Jun 13, 2009 at 4:27 am:

    dawn410 certainly! I just wish, there was more time for me to use twitter daily. But the good news is, rumor has it, one of our own CMs will be taking over the Vega twitter account and giving it the love and attention it deserves. So expect a lot of fun and excitement from Bingovega's twitter account.

  6. 6Joel on Jun 13, 2009 at 4:29 am:

    no problem. neither do we have :) … just tell us what you're doing. For example, if you're cooking, share that with us. If you're watching a great show, we'd love to know. If you're playing bingo with your friends at vega, we'd love to hear that too.

    In other words, twitter is everyone's a way to share special moments and thoughts with those you care about.

    I heard about that happening coconut. As with anything online you have to be careful.

    I heard about someone who stated they were going on vacation and while they were gone someone robbed their home. So Sad. Unfortunately we all have to be careful what we post.

    Twitter can be fun but I would watch what I post and say on it as with anything.

    Sometimes too much information is not a good thing.

    I look forward to being a twitter bug with everyone who wants to twitter from Vega. Let's keep our twitter fun and safe for all.

    Remember to have fun fun fun!

    Hugs
