How to open a Twitter account

I need participants for my heroic communal writing experiment, and to participate you need a Twitter account. I know a few of you out there are wary of another social networking site, but please, just until the experiment it over. It's easy, and you don't have to get a lot of Tweets from a bunch of people. Just open an account and follow me @catemaire 
HERE'S HOW:

1. Go to http://twitter.com/
2. Follow the directions to open an account (It's easier than facebook). You can use your name or choose a pen name.
3. Scroll down to Find.
4. Search for @catemaire  or Catherine Maire and click Follow.
5. Begin the writing process.

Thank you for being part of my experiment.
