The answers are :
1. First and foremost, I HAVE a Twitter account myself. Check out for Yasz_A.
2. It's way better than FB because with applications like TweetDeck, you get to shout out at multiple places like Twitter, FB, Friendster, etc all at once.
3. You get to follow up on the latest, I do mean, latest updates from celebs, travel people, business people, news and pretty much anyone that you happen to Follow in your Twitter.
4. You get to do viral marketing too with Twitter! If you are into internet marketing, this is your best bet for marketing.
5. Everybody else is twittering, so why not you?? Come on, since you are online like all the time during office hours, it doesn't hurt to Twitter as well. Hehe.
So, you are still not ready to jump on the bandwagon like everybody else? Shame on you then...harhar..No, really. Do subscribe on Twitter if you don't want to lose out from the game!

How to create tinyurl at your website?
Ever since people are crazy about tweeting in Twitter, your best bet to squeeze a URL link within the limited amount of characters allowed in a tweet is by having a tinyURL.
What is Tiny URL again? (*you may be asking this too!).
TinyURL is a way for you to shorten the length of a particular long URL into a tiny URL.
So how does it works?
Simply browse over to let say, http://tinyurl.com/ , enter any long URL that you have and it'll get converted to something tiny like this : http://tinyurl.com/lagxuw
There are many websites that provide tinyurl services. Simply google for tinyurl to get the list. All in all, they provide pretty much the same basic service with a slight additional features in some sites.

How to put up the retweet icon at your blog?
I knew someone will ask about this one and I was itching to know about putting up the ReTweet icon myself. I came across this blog, bloggerstop.net and tweaked a line or two at my Blogger template to make the icon works.
The exact code which I've added for my blog here is this:
1. Find this tag at your template:
2. Add the following code right below the above tag:
There are 2 other ways(applying a slight change of codes) to have the icon at your blog with its own pros and cons. However this particular RT will have your own Twitter ID on the line and the tweetmeme link at the end of the retweet which is something like this:
RT @Yasz_A life's a commotion!: Lamb Shoulder and Gourmet Burger Yasz's Style http://cli.gs/12XNZX (via @tweetmeme)
* note the via @tweetmeme at the end of the RT
If you ended up making a slightly different code ( you can check it out here), your Twitter id will not be shown in the RT. Eg:
RT @tweetmeme The Art and Science of Retweeting for Twitteraholics http://tr.im/gzNV
*note that the RT will come from tweetmeme and I don't think you want that. You need to have at least a recognition of your own id in the RT am I right? Hehe.
And yeah, all these codes thanks to the helpful blogger at bloggerstop.net. Probably if you Google more, you'll come up with better codes to put up the RT icon. As for me, this is good enough for now.
* This code formatter will help a lot to post codes in your blog posts.
