Z Club on Twitter

[STEVE BURNS]

A few of us trying it out but seems at the minute none of us seem to know how it works and are we meant to follow people or get them to follow us
So so confused even thinking of standing out side my front door and grabbing the first little oik who goes past giving him a bit of dosh so he can feed his habit in exchange for him showing me what to do twit wise sorry meant tweet wise init!!

I'm guessing the idea is you comment on things the z club is doing and people from outside the club ask the club questions? I'm only guessing though as I've never been on twitter. Perhaps someone in the know could explain?

Perhaps one of you could tweet "help, I'm new here WTF do I do"

The Z Club recruits "followers". As a new follower, you may attract people who want to follow you.
You can follow without being followed, but The Z Club will follow you (and your tweets) if you join us.
The Z Club may also follow people or organisations whose tweets may be deemed of interest to our members - e.g. Nissan U.K. or their motorsport division, Formula 1 drivers who feature in our F1 competition (might get some inside info...) etc.

The Z Club will try to tweet things of interest or forthcoming events. Followers are free to comment as they see fit...

The essence of a "tweet" is a short and pithy comment no more than 140 characters...

It would be also the done thing for @TheZclubUK to retweet interesting things that its followers tweet at it, so everyone can see what was said.

I joined twitter a few days ago for an attempt to "get up to speed" with the modern world. There's some rubbish out there is my first comment. I really don't want to know when someone is going to the shop or some crass comment about other people or the nauseating constant use of (3 or 4) swear words which seems to be coming a dominating factor in being on the web - what's wrong with education (no don't start) these days - there are lots more words they can use.

However I would recommend the Z Club site - as long as someone can be bothered to tweet some decent items on a daily basis. The note on the Santa Pod weekend for instance was good, also relevant news items, drawing attention to meetings and other events, progress on car restorations, the Z in magazines, when having a decent road trips "sun is shining, road is clear, driving down to ...." that's what I want to see. Good start.
