12. Ready for Twitter?
• ReTweet (RT) - share a tweet with those who
follow you
• Modified Tweet (MT) – retweet, but changed the
tweet slightly

the tweet on your timeline with quotes around it
and your added text to it

shout out

need with one search. According to a recent poll of BAs on Twitter, the following
hashtags help BAs keep up with the most relevant industry posts:
