Yes, I think you can use pictures, but most seem to use it for text quickies! (I only understand from what I've heard ... not yet used TWITTER myself.)

Carol, Would I be correct though in saying that Twittter does occasionally have pictures? I recall something about a celeb in a lift a little while back but am not sure if that was a picture or text or both!

I took another look at the mobile site last night and it all worked fine for a while, but then I got sort of mixed up somehow again and was sure I'd ended up back at the main site. Gonna do some more digging ... -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---- Original Message ---- From: "Tony Sweeney" <deirton711@xxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, June 11, 2009 12:29 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: A FACEBOOK AND TWITTER ...Hi Carol, Can't find the mail from someone who was wondering if this topic may be say off topic on this list!! In my firm opinion, this topic is indeed very much on topic for this list! I never really thought about the visuals when say for example, Facebook! Well done for raising the issue re the sites you mentioned and the possible "traps" for us!

Users tend to have their pictures up, where TWITTER is more text based and short texts. That's what appeals to me about TWITTER, but loads of my friends are on FACEBOOK so I use that. -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---- Original Message ---- From: "ELEANOR BURKE" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 7:04 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: A FACEBOOK AND TWITTER ...What is facebook/ I keep hearing about it.

I have a few oddities with Facebook which I can't fathom and could do with some chat sessions here and there ... for example, have just gone to comment on something someone wrote and the edit boxes showing up in Jaws when I've entered on the link of the person to whom I wanted to make a comment just don't seem to be for that person. I get confused too about whose wall I'm actually reading on (never mind writing) and think I know but this is only what I've sort of worked out ... I keep looking at Twitter and wondering ... Anyone want to start a list if there isn't one? I'd join! -- Carol carol.pearson29@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- **[mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq-- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter.
