Does anyone know if when someone "likes" a post, the poster - who you are NOT "following" - gets a notification? Also, it's possible to cancel that "like".......do they then get a notification of that too?

No idea I'm not a twitterer, not a face Booker, my addiction is forums where you can actually make decent length posts. But I'm sure someone will be along knows we must have some twitterers here.

My account says I've tweeted 24 times - which is true and I can see all my tweets by clicking on the link; I'm following 21 people and I can see all those people by clicking on the link; I have three followers.........but I can only see one! ; I have 21 likes..........and I can see those likes; and I have zero lists and moments!!!

BUT I can't see if anyone has liked my posts, and if so, who they are!!

Seriously annoying!

Re: Twitter

If you like a `Tweet` you can give your approval (like) by tapping the heart symbol under the Tweet, you don't have to be following anyone to do so. Touching the heart symbol again will remove your approval but you need to do this in a preset time interval. The author of the Tweet will be notified if you like their Tweet. If you decide to remove your `like` much later, the author of the Tweet won't be notified.

Thanks Judd. BUT if you "like" by tapping the heart symbol, will the poster be notified? Also, if you re-tap the heart to remove your like, will the poster be notified of the original like??

Like I said in my previous post, the poster will be notified after a certain time, not immediately. This gives you time to change your mind.

Re: Twitter

On the top of the Home screen there is an envelope symbol - touch that, but you can only PM people people who follow you.
