Hey Kim,

Reply to @funtrivia via Twitter. Don’t send a direct message. This way, it’s very easy to keep track of who replies first, second and third; Twitter puts them in the right order automatically. Great question!

Do you @reply or D message the answer to you?

Hey Lori,

the account @funtrivia isn’t following anyone, yet I’m able to see replies. Possibly it’s this: When you type the “@” symbol, then copy/paste a name, Twitter adds a space between the symbol and name. Remove that space.

When direct messaging someone, you need the space.

So, an example of each would be:

@funtrivia (note, no spaces)
d @funtrivia (direct message to the account)

I hope that helps.

Sounds like a very interesting idea. I have been fighting the thought of starting twittering, as I already spend way too much time on social networks, but this might be worth giving it a try

Dan, you have a great idea here. I own a trivia website of my own and have a lot of fun with it. Let me know if you need any help getting up and running.

[…] If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. As you know I am a fan of Twitter, but I have yet to find a Twitter group participation thing - Frozen Peas, Twitter Dating (no seriously it exists), etc. - that I was in to. Until now that is…Dan Perry is launching Twitter Trivia. Dan will tweet trivia questions and tally points for the 3 first correct responses. At the end of March he will announce the winners and maybe even have some prizes. If Twitter Trivia takes off, Dan will potentially offer more features like a leader board, “I know more useless crap than you” badges and more. I love trivia and competing for pointless titles so follow FunTrivia to play and help ensure Twitter Trivia will be a success. […]
