So what exactly is Twitter?
Twitter is a free online service that lets people communicate and connect with one another. Twitter asks you “What’s happening?” and relies on you to answer that question in a 140-character area. Through Twitter, you can connect with long lost friends, your favorite domain name registrar, or find new friends. Twitter can be accessed from a web browser, a mobile phone, or anywhere you are. Learn more about Twitter from this video or this introductory post from Zappos here.

1) NameCheap (@namecheap) will send out a Tweet (that is a Twitter message) saying “How many pounds does the average human head weigh?”
2) You must prefix your answer on Twitter with @namecheap, so you’d respond with “@namecheap eight pounds”.The @ symbol brings the message to our attention. If that’s not present, we won’t see it! puts it to our attention. If you’re the first person to answer correctly, you are guaranteed $9.69 credit in your Namecheap account.
