Tweet tweet, is that a bird?

Twitter homepage.

Twitter is a popular social networking site today. Many celebrities, businesses, athletes, adults and teenagers use this site to update others what they are doing or any news. People use twitter from anything from daily updates to political propaganda. For example, I work at Baskin Robbins and this company has a twitter to update the public on new flavors or advertise new deals.

Even politicians, such as Hilary Clinton, have twitters to inform fellow "tweeters (people who have twitters)" her political standing on social issues. Personally, I use twitter to see what my friends and family are doing. On the actual site, people many request to follow a certain tweeter and see what they have to say every time that person logs on. The impact twitter has had was truly unpredictable and the growth and potential it has to continue to change the world is compelling.

    i personally used to have a twitter but i havent used it since the begining of sophmore year......its not that fun for all you ever do is just tell others what you are doing and see what they are doing. although in some ways it can be useful in conversation and keeping up with current things its more like a stalker type of site dont you think?
