Another day, another barrage of tweets. Twitter - and other social media portals - has become part of many people's lives and even large organisations use this medium to send messages...but it can be a confusing business.

Trickier than a Croatian midfielder

Today, Luka Modric turns 31 and both his club, Real Madrid and world football's governing body, Fifa, thought it nice to send him a congratulatory message. However, in a Twittersphere full of hashtags and handles you have to be careful about selecting the right account to send it to.

An obvious name for the official Modric account could be @Modric19 however the real one is @lm19official. His club were quick to spot this and resent their best wishes.
