Twitter Abbreviations
Page created 8/9/09
I am starting this page to help clarify Twitter Abbreviations.
There may or may not be other pages that give the definitions but I figured you can never have enough
reference pages.
I just found today that there is a "Twitter Glossary"...click to view!
If you know of an abbreviation, please contact me and I'll add it.
I know this list in not complete and it never could be as people invent new definitions. Enjoy this list and
happy...Tweeting to you!
Please follow @MaryHWatts as a back up to my account!

See my article New Civilization to explain why and what I am doing!
Man survives best when man is helping man survive! A person is only as
valuable as he helps or assist others! Need some help in life without being
told what to do, what to think, contact me.
Have a great day! Carl

a subject to be located easier. Don't over use #s. "A hashtag is similar to other web tags- it helps add
tweets to a category" per Twitter. See full data: http://help.twitter.com/entries/49309-what-
