Tonight, you are cordially invited to what could possibly be the biggest party you’ll ever attend. And the beauty of it is, you can join in from the comfort of your sofa.

With Big Brother being the worlds’ most talked about show of the last decade, HashDash decided that BB10 Launch Night would be the perfect moment to present the worlds first ‘event branded’ Twitter application.

How do I join the party?

1) Watch the show

Turn on your telly, put your feet up and watch the Launch Show from 9pm tonight on Channel 4.


2) Tune in to the conversation

Just as you tune a radio to a particular frequency, all the Big Brother breaking news and conversation will be available on Twitter using the hashtag #bb10


3) Use the hashtag #bb10

When you post a message on Twitter, it is generally only visible to your immediate followers. To make all of your BB tweets visible to every single Big Brother fan on Twitter, simply include #bb10 in any BB related message you post.


4) Follow the BB10 party on Twitter

Usually on Twitter, you only see tweets from the people you are following, but when a news story is breaking or an ‘event’ is taking place, it’s loads more interesting to see what the rest of the world has to say. To follow everything related to BB10 simply search for #bb10 with any Twitter application.


5) What’s the best Twitter application for following BB10?

On BB10 launch night, you could use HashDash www.hashdash.com/bb10. You could also try www.twitterfall.com or www.tweetchat.com or TweetDeck as a downloadable Twitter application.


6) Where do I find # on my keyboard?

Usually on a PC it is right next to the [enter] key, but on a Mac it is found by typing [Alt 3].


And finally...

Keep it clean, be creative with your tweets... and above all, have fun!


The HashDash BB10 trial will run from 8pm on June 4th for 24 hours.

What is Twitter?

A micro-blogging service which allows you to post one-line updates (also known as tweets). Each one can be no longer than a text message.

Tweet back in response: if you want us to read a tweet, start it off @officialbb. If you want to pass one of our tweets on to your followers, preface it RT @officialbb then copy and paste our message.
