Twittering Serenity...

We're on Twitter now so you can follow Serenity and hear what we're up to a couple times a week (we plan to tweet about 3 times a week hopefully).

How to follow us:
  1. Either log on to www.twitter.com and request to follow serenityequine
  2. you can text the message: "follow serenityequine" to the number 40404 on your cell phone

be sure to read this page on twitter to better understand how it works and of course make sure you've got a good text plan if you use your cell phone to follow us.

Here is more information on twitter, for those of you new to it:

From Wickipedia:
Twitter is a free social networking
and micro-blogging service
that enables its users to send and read each others' updates, known as tweets.
Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140
characters, displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to other users
- known as followers - who have subscribed to them. Senders can restrict
delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow open access.
Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or
external applications. The service is free over the Internet, but using SMS may
incur phone service provider fees.


Think of it as a quick and short way to stay up to date by email or text message with someone or a group. You might get a message that tells you we've had a horse adopted, or you might even get one that says we're looking for an item (like right now we need pointed shovels for an upcoming event!!)

Here is a great page of info from Twitter: http://help.twitter.com/portal

If you have questions, email our webmaster Cowgirly at webmaster@serenityequinerescue.com. We look forward to tweeting with you (we're still learning the lingo!!). If you send me an email with the subject line 'twitter subscribe' our webmaster will send you an invite to subscribe to make it easy on you!
