Twitter is the most famous micro blogging social network site. A lot of people have tried out Twitter, but a lot of them did not know what to do after they got an account and started micro blogging. There is much more to it than just having an account and micro blogging. Here are just five things you can do after getting your Twitter account. 1. Update your profile

When people visit your Twitter page, they often look for information about the person. Filling out the profile will let the visitors get a better idea of the person who is tweeting.

2. Create a Twitter background

Giving your Twitter page a unique look with a unique background is an awesome way to let others know that you are creative and professional. There are some websites which offer a collection of Twitter backgrounds so that you don’t have to create them by yourself. For example TwitrBackgrounds offer a large collection of good quality backgrounds. There are also people who do custom designs of Twitter backgrounds.

3. Follow people

While on Twitter it is a good idea to follow people who have common interests. To find out people who have common interests as you, you can search for your interests on Twitter and then find people who blog about them. There is also another amazing service called Twibes which finds groups of people with common interests. I suggest using this service instead of manually searching on Twitter since it is much easier.

4. Get your Twitter Client

If you are a very active Twitter user then you need a client for your laptop, mobile and browser. This way you don’t have to go to Twitter.com and update your status. Instead of that you can update it directly from your desktop, mobile or browser.

5. Get your Twitter badge

For the owners of personal websites and blogs it will be a good idea to have a Twitter badge. Twitter badges are little gadgets that will show your Twitter posts right inside them which can be used embedded in your blog or website. To get a Twitter badges visit http://twitter.com/badges

These are just 5 things you can do with your Twitter account. After doing all of the above be sure to be a regular Twitter user so that you get more followers and friends.

Google Chrome is one of the browsers that gave a new meaning to the words “Web Browser”. At first people thought that Google Chrome was just another browser. But after some with its amazing features and extensions it has proven that it is not simply “just” another browser. A lot of users still use Firefox because of the enormous collection of add-ons that could be used with it. Now Google Chrome users can have extensions with it and it is not a mistake when I say that Google Chrome has also got a large collection of good quality extensions built for it. Extensions or add-ons play a very vital part in a browser. It gives further ability and power to the browser and also allows its user to modify some of the aspects of the browser to their desires. Today I would like to shed some light on 5 great extensions for businessmen or for a man with a busy schedule and lots of clients. These extensions are sure to make their life easier while on the internet. 1. Gmail Checker This tool will show if you have any unread emails in your inbox. It is a handy tool because when you have this extension you won’t have to go to gmail.com and check if you have any new mail.

2. Google Tasks With a busy schedule it would be difficult to manage all the tasks you have to do every day. With this extension you can make a list of the tasks you have to do for the day and complete it.

3. Bubble Translate This tool allows translating text and full websites. It will be easier to get information or check a client’s website which is in another language with this tool.

4. AdBlock+ When you are browsing the internet and while surfing for information over the internet, it would be really annoying to have popups and advertisements popup in front of you every time you click a link. With this tool you can block those advertisements and popups and find the information you need faster.

5. Chrome Currency Converter When buying things and selling online it is really frustrating to convert every single pricing to another currency and the worst part is it takes a lot of time from your busy schedule. This extension converts all the currencies in a site to a desired currency of the user. And it comes with a mini converter.
