I'm a Twittering Idiot (or just an idiot?)

Okay, so I finally did it. I broke down and joined Twitter. (follow me? please? It's lonely...) I've whined and resisted, both privately and publicly on my About.com site about my fear of Twitter and other social networking sites, but have decided it's a necessity.

The problem is this: I'm a Twittering idiot. Yes, it makes for a good pun--two of them actually since with a last name like Morin I can easily also become a Twittering Morin as opposed to moron--but it's also true. I have NO IDEA how to use the blasted site!

How do I get people to follow me? Can I invite them the same way I can on LinkedIn? What kinds of updates am I supposed to post and when?

Is there a Dumb-Dumb's Guide to Twitter out there?
