TWEET TWEET


These days, it seems like everyone has a Twitter! If you don't have a Twitter, then you're basically not cool! I guess I'm one of the ones who aren't cool, because I have yet to start tweeting my life away... Literally. I have a friend of mine who makes it his priority to tweet every hour, on the hour, it's borderline scary. In today's society, there are so many ways we communicate with family, friends and co-workers, and apparently Twitter has rapidly taken over. Twitter has not only been classified as a social network, but an information network. It serves the purpose to tell people what they care about around the world as it's happening. The idea behind Twitter is great, but I couldn't allow myself to get hooked to yet another social networking site, (Myspace and Facebook). There are some great people who tweets on a daily and enjoy every minute of it. Celebrities like P.Diddy, Ashton Kutcher and even Jospeh 'Rev Run' Simmons. All three of these tweeters have thousands of followers and the numbers increase day after day. Many news channles now have Twitter accounts and expect people to follow the news via twitter, and it has been one of the greatest ideas ever. So many of my friends never turn on their televison sets to watch the news, but once it's on Twitter, it's one everyone is talking about. Twitter is a great addition to the tech world, it's going to be interesting to see how far it's going to go! Do you have a twitter? If I could follow you, I definitely would. Perhaps post your twitter name and some of our other peers will follow you!
