Should I use Twitter

By Kenneth Olenderson

Twitter is a website that allows you to interact with different people around the globe. Twitter is like my space but instead of talking to one person youre talking to everyone you have in your followings category. Twitter is a place where you can meet new people and learn new things. Twitter is kind of like blogging in a way.

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.

As twitter began to emerge from the internet globe people became skeptical because blogging at 140 characters seemed to be preposterous. By the years end Twitter became the new trend and it was spreading like the black plague across the world.

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.

When followers begin to follow you be sure to updated or tweet interesting articles to your followers because if you dont do that often then your followers may disappear over time and thats not good because you want to show that there are more followers then there are following.
