Blitz tips

Hi, I just joined chess.com and am fairly new to chess. I have never played blitz 1 or 2 min games and I thought I would give them a try. Are there any tips for a newbie or do you just play as normal only faster? Thanks.

If youre new to chess, and want to improve, dont play blitz/bullet.  If youre here just to have fun then have fun!

Play thousands of blitz games and then whine about how you never improve.
You'll fit right in.

Don't play speed chess here unless your fine with losing on disconnections. Lichess.org is way more reliable than this dump.

Dump!? Sorry I don't want to sound naive, but I probably am being, why do you think that?

Well "dump" might be a little extreme it just ticks me off that this place is always disconnecting my games when other sites work perfectly fine.
