How To for the Twitter Card
Bing bing, twitter email… it’s twitter card. Twitter has developed a new feature called twitter card, but how do you use it? when I was setting up the PureRandom twitter card, I followed all the instructions, but still got a bit confused. This could be just me, though it never hurts to help others.
