Fleets are for sharing fleeting thoughts and disappear in 24 hours.

– To post a Fleet, Go twitter -> go to your Home Timeline -> Tap on your avatar at the top left of the timeline (+ button next to your profile picture)

– Type/share your Fleeting thoughts. Fleets can also be photos or videos with text on top.

Your followers can see your Fleets on top of their Home Timeline.

There are no public Retweets, replies or likes on Fleets.

If your DMs are open, anyone can DM a reply to your Fleet. If they are closed, then people you follow can reply. I believe this will force people to close their DM to stop spamming!

You can also see the people who viewed your Fleet.

So are you going to try Fleets?
