Basically, I think of it as the status update part of facebook, but only now, you have a limit on how much you can type (140 characters). You can reply to other people's tweets by typing @username or clicking the little reply arrow at the bottom right of their post, with the same limit on characters.
When Vera posts a contest, they tell you to respond with you answer and a certain word with a # in front of it. So, for example, your response may be something like this:
@verabradley My favorite thing about #cupcakes is how bright&happy the patterns are & I love pink!
Or you may respond and have the #word at the end like this: @verabradley I used to take ballet & tap when I was younger - now I just like to dance for fun! #quickstep
Let me know if you have any other questions - I'll try to help! :-)
