Let me try to answer as much as I can. Twitter, in its most basic form, is on your internet browser: http://www.twitter.com . From there you can update and read others' updates. I can't remember if I had to adjust settings for this, but the only time I get email from Twitter is when I'm sent a direct message. There are various twitter applications. Many are for one's phone -- yes, it can get spam-alicious at times, but I think you can pick and choose whom to follow on your phone. On my computer, I use an app called TweetDeck. It separates out my general feed, replies, and direct messages as I see fit.
When it comes to the fake celebrities on Twitter, really, you have to use your best judgment. If it doesn't seem real, it's probably not. If it does, then there's a good chance that it is.

I hope this helped somewhat!
