What is Twitter

This is a guest post by my friend, Kenneth Olenderson. Kenneth believes that Twitter is the next big thing after MySpace but what is twitter?

Twitter has grown to be one of the most popular sites in the world. Twitter grows every day and every night. Bloggers love twitter because it allows them to interact with several people at once. Twitter is a web site that is considered like a micro blog.

Twitter was originally designed for interacting with family and friends but it later grew to a micro-blogging network that allowed you to promote websites and several other products. Twitter quickly became a new trend and people were hooked. Twitter today is known throughout the world and it continues to grow every day.

When Twitter began to grow in 2006, people where a little skeptical on only blogging 140 characters. As twitter went on people began to get comfortable and before the years end, Twitter was the new trend.

As twitter became popular people took advantage of the opportunity and started to use it as a means of promoting products and different types of shows. Politicians started to use twitter as a publicity tool and actors did as well. As twitter grew, more and more people signed up.

To start your own twitter page you can go to the web site and click sign up. Information that is required from you is your name and email address. You will also have to create a password that you can remember. Optional information like your cell phone is your choice to put in.

After your information is put in you may proceed to follow anyone you would like whether it be someone you know or someone you dont know. Your inbox on your email will receive any messages, or as twitter will call them tweets and your cell phone will also receive a txt if anyone tweets you.

As soon as you get followers you will want to update or tweet as much as possible but tweet only on interesting topics or people may see you as annoying and they may even unfollow you. Also people will grow suspicious if you have a thousand followers and only one updated because they may think that you are out to spam or even scam people.
