Twitter's social networking lets people post 140 character messages answering the simple question: What Are You Doing Right Now? Called micro blogging on steroids, it's just going to get bigger and bigger. As it grows, Twitter is becoming an important way for filmmakers and film lovers to connect.
Getting a Twitter account is easy and FREE. If you really want to see how it works, start following some Twitters. You can follow me at www.Twitter.com/Raindance_Fest

Here are my top ten tips when getting started with Twitter, and some other peoples’ thoughts on the newest networking craze:
1. Twitter is fun.
Remember that first and foremost, Twitter is about having a good time.
2. Twitter is sharing.
Share links, post ideas, ask questions, answer questions. Simply opine about what YOU think!
“Even more so than a blog, your tweets need to be personal. *I* and *WE* Never *Company Name*. Don’t be self aggrandizing. Ask for feedback. Ask for action. Give rewards (and don’t think these have to be physical things either).”
--Jon Bonnell of Infinite Spectrum Productions

3. Twitter is listening.
It's not about shouting or pushing stuff. So, get an account, and start listening to Tweets. Seeing peoples’ thoughts is a great way to get inspired; why not do some market research on that new clever, idea for a movie?
