Twitter, now X, is a micro-blogging, social media tool that Tally Hall began to use in 2008 but most of the world didn't start to catch onto until 2009. Most band members also have their own personal accounts, where fans are likely to get a more inside look at their lives and the band.

Throughout 2009, the HITS Twitter held Tally Hall trivia contests. A question was posed and those who answered in a certain amount of time were awarded an official code from Atlantic Records which was was good for the downloading of Tally Hall's three M.M.M.M. bonus songs: Just A Friend, Dream, and Mucka Blucka. Since then, the HITS Twitter has been fairly active in the Tally Hall Twitter community.

On June 14th 2009, Joe Hawley would convert his Twitter account (then @JOEHAWLEY) into a dream journal where he would tweet his dreams as he remembered them.[1] He described this in his bio as "Brief chronicles of the subconscious theatre". However Joe would frequently delete his account for short periods of time,[2] and in October 2019 his username (now @whalejoey) was obtained by another Twitter user and previous tweets were lost. In 2022 Joe regained account access and continued tweeting on the site, until late 2023, where he deactivated, and the account name was taken by someone else.
