FAQ

What is Twitter?

Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows its users to send and read other users' updates, which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length.

How do I sign up, or "follow," the SMUHealthyU Twitter posts?

Signing up (called "following" in Twitter lingo) for the SMUHealthyU page is very easy. Just create a login on www.twitter.com and then go directly to the SMUHealthyU Twitter page. Once you access Twitter page, you will need to click on the button that says "Follow." This will allow you to instantly access up-to-date news via Twitter.

What are "Tweets?"

Twitter pages are updated with "Tweets" (messages sent via Twitter) that contain breaking news, up-to-the-minute headlines, insight and links that can't be found anywhere else.

You can receive updates via Twitter through the Web, on your mobile phone, via instant messaging (IM) or through e-mail. Whichever way you choose, you will always stay up to date with SMUHealthyU happenings.

You can add Twitter pages to your own blog, Facebook page or other social networking sites. More information on how to do this can be found here. For additional information about using Twitter, visit the Twitter help pages.

It's not always easy to answer lengthy questions on Twitter due to its 140 character limit, so email will often work best for questions. For questions about health and other benefits, email us at benefitsu@smu.edu. For questions about Wellpower or general wellness programming and activities, email us at wellpower@smu.edu.
