Good lord Edgy I was in first grade. I don't think there are pics Mine was yellow and white and I wore it as a jumper of course. White boots, sigh. I was such a fashion hound. Once a week that is.

So I just looked at the Twitter page and there was a notification with a link to this thread. If you post *at sign* with something any where on the internet Twitter finds it?

I believe seawolf? set that up. Every new thread here gets a tweet. Unrelated to that ,every post here gets into the RSS feed.

What is RSS? I have heard of that. Aren't constant tweets annoying? I have always wondered that...

To answer Kase's question, yes, any time you @ someone, Twitter finds it. And yes, every time a new thread is posted here, the CPF account tweets it. I didn't set it up; I'd actually rather that not happen, because auto-tweets are dangerous.

Do we need to reel in some setting? I'm embarrassingly clueless about Twitter, and my generally finding it annoying that it's gotten so popular doesn't help me move forward on the learning curve.

It's fine for each thread to get a tweet, that's sorta the point. Of course, without an actual social media presence (i.e. non-thread tweets) very few people actually follow or see the threads to be enticed to jump in and post so.. It's not a setting within the forum, someone set it up, i'm just blanking on who. cooby wrote: What is RSS? I have heard of that. Aren't constant tweets annoying? I have always wondered that... RSS means Really Simple Syndication. It's basically just a stream of text that other places can read. You can think of it just like reagular tv syndication. Every post/thread here goes into an XML document and RSS feed readers can interpret that into posts and content. Our twitter feed reads that ,and every time it sees a new thread it creates a tweet out of it. Twitter is about constant tweets. Think about it like the office gossip around a water cooler, except you get to choose who's there and if it gets too loud/spammy you can kick people out or simply walk away and close Twitter.

I think our Twitter benefactor might have been our captain in exile, Soupcan.
