Everyone is a few tips from being better at Twitter.

The First Rule of Tweet Club is: USE SILENCE.

Especially against trolls.

The best way to stop the spreading of bad ideas and bad accounts is DO NOT REPLY and DO NOT RETWEET.

2/ If you like someone’s tweet, AMPLIFY HER VOICE instead of stealing her words.

3/ It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a person in possession of a correction to a tweet, should THINK before tweeting.

Is it True?
Is it Helpful?
Is it Inspiring?
Is it Necessary?
Is it Kind?

4/ Beware reflexive retweeting. Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers. Beware negative news and look for positive news.

5/ Tweet others as you would be tweeted.

It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to tweet and remove all doubt.

8/ RECLAIM YOUR TIME.

“We don’t have to and shouldn’t engage everything that seeks to engage us. Think high. Love deep. [Do critical work.] Be wise with your energy.” ~ @BerniceKing

9/ Use muting, blocking, and reporting when you see a Twitter account dumping toxic waste into Twitter.

11/ Keep everything in perspective.

Get outside; spend time with friends.

Do not let Twitter be your only — or one of your few —sources of information and interaction.

Take a break from technology regularly.
