Type your comment here.I am really sorry but what you've said under 3, 4, 5, and 6 is wrong and misleading. Firstly, twitter users write their own bio so they can put anything they like (being a CEO of a company where they are the only employee, director, manager and owner, all in one); secondly who's going to spend hours or days researching other people's bio. The number of tweets being a measure of credibility or authority is nonsense because many would argue to the contrary. Busy people don't have time to sit and tweet every day of the week. So, with due respect for trying to 'help' people learn how to verify a tweet your advice is nothing but a lame attempt to appear knowledgable, adding one more publication to your portfolio. But, sometimes it's better not to post anything than to post something just for the sake of it.
