I was with a friend this week and was DM’ing with someone on my phone.
He said “do you DM on Twitter frequently?” I said “yes, I use it all the time.”
Twitter DM is like any other messenger, particularly on the phone. It has the advantage of not needing to know the person’s phone number or handle on a messenger service. If you follow them and they follow you, you can DM them and chat like any other messenger.

I like it a lot for that one feature – not needing to know the person’s contact info beyond their Twitter handle.
If you use Twitter a lot but don’t use DM, you should give it a try.
It’s super useful in a pinch when you need to reach someone and don’t know how.
