Twitter’s getting bigger and bigger all the time. Some people love it, some people hate it, but no one can deny that it’s getting to be a big deal around the InterWeb.

It seems to me that most people who don’t like Twitter, don’t really get how it works. The idea of telling the world that you’re eating a sandwich really isn’t that exciting, it’s true; but that’s not really the ideal use for Twitter. So, in an effort to level the Twitter playing field a little bit, here are some great articles about how to make the most out of Twitter (though most importantly, the key to Twitter is to ignore all these rules and find your own way).
