FIRST GOAL

Let's get started by creating a Twitter account.

Go to twitter.com and complete the signup process.

You will need to pick a Twitter name, so start thinking about that. Don't worry, you can change it later.

If you can, upload your profile picture and write up a short bio about yourself.

Finally, start your Twitter adventure by finding people to follow.

SECOND GOAL

After you start following people for a little while, you'll begin to see how Twitter works.

Now it's time to compose your first Tweet.

THIRD GOAL

Now that you have Tweeted, it's time to start composing some more advanced Tweets to help your them noticed.

Try using some hashtags in your Tweets. After observing Tweets, you may have noticed some popular hashtags.
