Twitter

Twitter has created this type of 140 characters or less environment. Twitter is an application that is available all over the world, on either a mobile platform or the use of a computer. You can “Tweet” a message or a status in 140 characters or less. Personally I think Twitter is the most powerful social networking tool. With most businesses and organizations being on Twitter, it takes very little effort to talk about a company, product, person and announcing it to your followers. You in fact are able to contact anyone who is in your interest indirectly. This creates that network. If you are sending out a tweet with a “#” this makes it a public tweet. So anyone who uses a certain word or phrase with the same “#”, this enables anyone who uses the same one, in the entire Twitter network. One of the biggest things about Twitter is that you need to learn to lingo. There are certain ways to utilize it to the maximum. Some people who are not patient or just want an easy to learn/use platform, may be turned away from Twitter. For those people Twitter will be just like another Myspace or Facebook status updating app. Twitter is a great way to share media among your followers as well as anyone in your interest that may want to know about that knowledge as well. Recently, I’ve used Twitter quite often and have made more of an effort to learn the lingo, and my efforts have been paying off. I’ve acquired many more followers and some of my recent “tweets” have been retweeted by some people I don’t know but support my postings!
