"For the First Time, "BIG BROTHER" Debuts Two Twitter Pages, "BIG BROTHER SCOOP" and "BIG BROTHER HOH"

For the first time, CBS has launched a Twitter experience to keep BIG BROTHER fans and viewers "in the know" with daily updates from a production insider. "BigBrotherScoop" (www. Twitter .com/BigBrotherScoop) will provide exclusive updates as things happen in real time.

On Friday, July 10, a second Twitter page will serve as a perk for each week's Head Of Household. "BigBrotherHoH" (www. Twitter. com/BigBrotherHoH) will give that week's Head Of Household the opportunity to tweet daily messages directly to viewers and fans. To obtain instant updates for all your favorite CBS Stars, go to www.CBS.com/ Twitter.

I can barely use my cell phone...how the heck am I gonna tweet?

I am so out of it...I have no My Space, I have no Facebook, I don't turn on my cell phone, except if I have to make a call, which is about twice a month...just call me techno-challenged.

BUT, I do have Real Player !!

And with BB starting tomorrow, that's all that's important, right???

Heaven, there are a couple BB pages on Facebook. I signed up to follow some of the BB twitter pages and some are now following me, as if I have any inside info! We are desperate fans. Realplayer has a good page on Facebook, too. This year we have so many sources of info about BB, I miss the days when we depended on the live feed posters on this forum. It was so easy then. We have too much info now, no more days of peering through fish tanks trying to see housemates walk by.

I know Twitter is for cell phones but can you get it to message your email too?

Yes, you can Miz. I only use it from my computer since I don't have a phone or a plan that I can use it with. You can set your preferences for being emailed about certain things, I believe. I know I get an email when someone starts "following me." I'm pretty sure I can set it for other alerts. Now if you mean just posting to Twitter and reading it, you can go right to the your home page after you make an account and read everything from who you are following via your computer. Hope that helps!

Miz, I don't use twitter on my phone at all. I use it strictly on my computer. I use firefox and there is an addon called twitterfox. It sits in the bottom right corner of the status bar and when someone I follow sends a tweet, it pop up a little box in the bottom corner. I can send and receive tweets from that box without it affecting at all what I'm doing on my browser.

I mostly use a great iPhone app called Tweetie but the Firefox addon sounds great for the computer so thanks for mentioning it LT.

There are some pretty cool Twitter apps on www.getjar.com. Most are free. I use Snaptu and it is awesome.

I can see I'm gonna have to break down and join Twitter aren't I?

I hope not. I'm not joining Twitter. I'm hoping that all the twitterers will post the twitters right here in this thread for us.

I just joined Twitter.

I feel like a stalker.

So far, I'm stalking Alison Grodner, Janelle, BB Scoop and Hamsterlady. I'll try to stalk the HOH when that tweetie becomes available on the 10th.

Anyone else I should be hunting down?

I would think that anyone who loves the voyeuristic qualities of Big Brother, would just love to stalk people!

(from a safe distance, of course!)
