72. Sure. You sign up - easy as pie. You have to come up with a name

or they call it "handle"

Everyone's handle is prefixed by an "@" sign

@realdonaldtrump is dipshit's handle.

Think of it like an email address.

Let's just say you only love one person/entity. You can search for their
handle. Let's just say it's @cnn. So, you search for @cnn, click on it
and then hit the "follow" button.

You are done.

Every day when you sign on to twitter you will get a feed of every tweet
cnn posted (namely all the news).

Typically, though, we have lots of people we want to hear "the latest" from.
You simple search for them and follow them, and then they will be in
your feed. @huffingtonpost, for example

People can also follow you. they will then see everything you post
as well. You can click on tweet and just say "good morning" or whatever
and everyone who is following you will see that.

Retweets are when you read something you like - from any source (it's a button)
and you want all your followers to read it too. You retweet and it will show in
all you followers feed.

best I understand it anyway. sure there may be more
