[nabs-l] Twitter question

[Chris Nusbaum]

Oh, I see.  So it's not like Facebook.  I ask all these questions 
because I will probably get a Twitter account at some point and 
need to know how it works before I get one.

Well, I stand corrected, apparently if you "protect" your tweets,
which I do not do, you have to accept follow requests.

Then what were the rest of the people in this thread talking 
about
when they said, for example, that they "use sighted assistance to
accept follower requests?"

Twitter is not like Facebook, you don't accept or deny
requests.  Anyone can follow you, and you can follow anyone.

A number of blind persons use various clients on the iPhone, Many 
of
us used Qwitter, which is no longer in development, replaced by
quitmonger, dna the cube.  There is also an accessible web site,
easychirp.com.

requests on
Twitter? I'm using JAWsS version 12.
