A good friend of mine, @Dirgayuza Setiawan recently launched his Twitter book for beginners. If you know anyone who’s just getting into Twitter, it might be a good idea to get them this book even though most of the information is available from Twitter’s own help pages.

The good thing about printed books is that you can read them when there’s no Internet connection. Mashable has a really good free online guide for Twitter but it’s not that useful offline. The PDF version is only readable on the latest version of Adobe Reader which I’m not a fan of. The book is in Indonesian which helps locals understand Twitter better if they’re not that fluent in English. They also won’t need to dig through the help pages at http://twitter.com/help. I’m sure even many seasoned veterans haven’t bothered to look through that section of the site.

It’s a good guide for beginners without getting into more complicated situations.
