You said they “editing Tweets.”
I’m just asking how.
But thanks. :-)
I’m back now. I don’t have a Twitter account and have avoided newer “social media” so far. Only aware of a few elements of Twitter design and such boards in general.
Set up and ran listservers and used newsgroups back in the ‘90s. Used MUAs (e-mail programs) like elm, pine, and set up and admin’d MTAs (mail transfer agents) during the ‘80s and ‘90s. There was a time, when some of us simply used FTP or command line MUAs (with only one period at the end of each message) for sending and receiving messages.
Security was not a concern during the ‘80s with mostly military people, academics and a few nerds using the Net. There was nearly nothing commercial and very little entertainment. Most of us used minicomputers or some of the earliest micros for Internet use. Modems looked something like telephone receivers and were slower than most people now could imagine. Good for text only, though.
Didn’t see photographs on monitors much until the mid-nineties. We knew that video movies would arrive but somewhat dreaded that along with more commercial entities coming on line. We knew that more surveillance recording and control would arrive with such developments.
Originally, the Net was a good idea for the more durable landline communications with the old telephone company equipment for use after a nuclear exchange: a civil defense thing among other considerations. Roots were going to be redundant and independent if needed. That idea is long gone.
