Wednesday Words: Discover

Did you know there is an easy way to discover new people to follow in five different ways on Twitter? There's a Discover feature that has 5 functions to allow you to find new people to follow.

The first option is Tweets.  This option shows you the most popular Tweets on Twitter at the time you are looking. Some Tweets will be specific to your interests based on who you are following, retweeting, etc., while others will be globally trending tweets. You will have the option to follow the folks making those tweets, retweeting, etc.

The next option is the Activity tab. This shows the interactions of people you follow, including their latests retweets, replies and favorites, allowing you to do the same as well as follow the people they retweet.

The Who to Follow option provides you with suggestions of people similar to interests you have recently followed as well as accounts that are flagged as interesting that might be of interest to you.

The Find Friends option allows you to import contacts from your contact book and see if they are on Twitter. If they are, you can easily follow them.

Finally, the Popular Accounts option creates a list of some engaging and followed accounts on Twitter.  This list is created based off your interests.

If you're looking for new people to follow on Twitter, Discover is a great way to go about doing it!
