Twitter

Internet relationships are very different from actual personal relationships. It is based primarily on like, know, and trust. Many people are reaching out to others through social network websites and one of these sites is Twitter.

If you don't like a person, then you can't trust him or her. If you become a subscriber of Twitter, you can meet millions of people and perhaps you can find some individuals that you might like.

In this social network site, you can do microblogging; so why micro? Well, it's because you can only compose a message that is 140 characters in length. It's too short but it tells a lot of what you're doing. You see, if you're using Twitter, you will be asked to answer the question – “what are you doing?” and the answer should be written in 140 characters.

Whenever you answer that question or when you make updates, the tweets are sent to all your friends to let them know what you're doing. The aim of the developer of Twitter is to know all the activities of his friends and it is exactly what you can get from the site.

For instance, you're going out to get some groceries. You can update your tweets and tell your friends that you're out getting some groceries. Now, some of your friends may respond to your tweets but some will not. That's the good thing with Twitter. The receiver of the updates or tweets is not forced to respond immediately. In fact, they can ignore the update if they want to. It's up to you to adjust the settings on your profile page.

You can choose only a few of your friends to receive the message or tweets. You can also choose when and where you will receive the tweets. For example, you can receive the tweets on your mobile phone so that wherever you are, you will know what your friends are doing; and you can even reply via your mobile phone if you like.

Many new users of Twitter are often confused when they receive tweets. You see, some tweets are addressed to only one person and yet everyone on the ‘friends list' receives it. It's natural to get confused at first but as you use the site more often, you will appreciate it more. Did you know that Twitter is just as popular as MySpace and Facebook? It has about six million users from different countries. You can meet a lot of new friends there or you can also locate lost relatives and classmates.
