How to Get a Twitter Button for Your Blog
The new buzz online is Twitter! I have read many articles on Twitter, but as always, I put it off to the back of my head. Still, I don't understand Twitter enough to do anything with it.
Many articles indicate that you can get traffic by using Twitter, and many blogs have the avatar "Follow Me on Twitter". There, I go to the Twitter site, look for the code and the avatar, but find none.
Finally, after looking for two weeks, I come across this website: TwitterButtons.com. It is fairly easy to set up. All you need to do is to type in your Twitter user name, pick out the design that you like, copy the code, and paste it to your blog.

Twitter is still a thought for me...I've been thinking about signing up, but I all ready have two blogs and a facebook page (and I have yet to figure out facebook)...If they keep coming up with these 'great' new sites, I never will get my dishes done...grin...
Brenda,
I know what you mean about Facebook, and Twitter..I can't keep up either with so much new information..
I am curious about twitter and I like the idea of microblogging, but haven't signed up yet. You pointed out some good reasons to join. With so much to do and so little time it's hard to decide. :)
Twitter is an essential communication tool for bloggers to at least help build a network and get their word out.
Nice blog title, Wandering Thoughts, very similar to my poetry blog Wanderer Thoughts.
Diane,
I have to learn about Twitter yet..I read many articles, but still very blurry about it..
Dragonblogger,
I found your article on your blog, bookmark it, and will spend time reading and learning this coming week!
Not really interested, with two blogs, Myspace and Facebook I'm busy enough. And, oh, I also joined the Dutch site Hyves because most of my family is on there.
I am interested in learning about Twitter too. I hav heard things about it so I will check it out too.
Middle Ditch,
I understand totally! I am having trouble keeping up with everything..
Mily,
It is still a mystery to me..I follow people who follow me, but then what to do, I don't know!
Thanks! Just what I've been looking for.
If you have twitter account and would like to add more followers, you should embed the follow me button to your blog.
Fascinating website.
