Lincoln assassination on twitter - Rhatkinson - 03-07-2014 06:48 PM

Hey everyone,

I have started a Lincoln Assassination account on twitter just for fun and to post interesting facts about the assassination. If you are on twitter, the account name is @ALassassination (you are limited in number of characters that you can put on twitter.)

I'm going to post more there as I have time and will link to some of the great posts that Dave has done on boothiebarn.com

Look forward to seeing many of you next weekend in DC.

Heath

Well I signed up for Twitter yesterday so that I could follow Heath's great Lincoln assassination tweets. I must say that it is a lot of fun and really easy to sign up.

Thanks, Dave.

I second how easy and educational twitter is. Go ahead and join.

Please post any ideas or photos that you can think of for me to post on twitter.

Thanks,
Heath

I'm trying to set up an account. How do I add a photo for an avatar? It does not give me an option - just shows a big green EGG?!?! Huh

Betty, when you're signed in, there should be a button that says "Edit Profile" or a button that is shaped like a gear. Clicking on either of those will let you change your picture. I started off as an egg, too.

Thanks, Dave

But I've gone into the "Settings" and the "gear" for the past 2 hours. It does NOT give me the option to change a photo. It simply shows the green egg and says "Photo" - "Yes". It does not give any options to change an avatar from the egg. Don't know why. I'm trying a different browser.

Really weird! Apparently Twitter doesn't like Firefox (which is my default browser) nor Safari (on my iPad) - because I could only get the option to change my avatar from an egg to a real one on Google Chrome!

Thanks, ya'll! I'm following.....
