For registry on Twitter, we advise you to enter your true name
and a meaningful ID, so that your friends can find you
without difficulty. Furthermore, uploading a photo of yours
may be equally helpful. Note that if you select “Protect my
updates”, other people cannot view your information until
they have passed your verification.
Once you have successfully registered on Twitter, you
can interact with it even you are not using a computer or not
visiting the Twitter website. You can establish the connection
to Twitter through the instant message application of your
phone or through an IM account. Select “SETTINGS–>PHONE
ANDIM”, connecting your phone or IM application to your
Twitter account. This step is very easy. Note that when you
receive a message in your phone or IM application, the
message is also sent to your personal page in Twitter.
