Twitter and Facebook are exciting social networking sites, which enable users to communicate in a quick and direct way...
What is Twitter?
Twitter is a website designed to allow people to communicate and stay connected by exchanging quick, frequent, 140 character messages. When you log into Twitter, you simply choose whose messages you want to receive and how you want to receive them.
What is following?
If you follow National Rail Enquiries (@nationalrailenq), you'll get our service disruption information and updates on your homepage when you log in to Twitter, or on your mobile phone if you've registered it to your account.
To start receiving messages from National Rail Enquiries, or another person, visit their profile page and click "follow". Alternatively, if you've registered your mobile phone just send a text message to Twitter with the words "follow [username]". As soon as a new update is posted, you'll see it on your homepage, on a Twitter application or you'll get a text message.
