Twitter lets you send direct messages to any other Twitter user provided he or she is following you. The other big limitation is that you can only send one DM at a time.
There are situation when you want to send private DMs to multiple people on Twitter. For instance, it’s your birthday and a couple of people have sent you birthday greetings through public tweets. Now you can either thank them all with public tweets (@replies) or you can send them private DMs containing the same note.
Neither Twitter’s web interface nor their desktop and mobile clients support multiple DMs but you can use an online app called TweetGuru to message multiple Twitter users with one go.
It’s simple. Just authenticate the app with your Twitter account and type the Twitter handles of all the users whom you want to message (see screenshot). You can use TweetGuru to send direct messages to 12 different users at a time.
