WHY Xtra: 5 Twitter No-Nos

  1. Retweeting without attribution. Think of it as plagiarism in 140 characters or fewer.
  2. Having every link you post be for your own website. Nobody likes someone who only talks about himself.
  3. Tweeting constantly. The general rule is to contain yourself to no more than 10 tweets a day.
  4. Not including a link or photo when making a compliment or recommendation. That is such a tease.
  5. Not thinking before you tweet. Remember, as fun and casual as Twitter seems, this is a social networking site used by many for business, employers as well as employees, so keep your comments filtered and fair.
