Twitter….. a free
social networking and
micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length which are displayed on the user's profile page and delivered to other users who have subscribed to them (known as followers). Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow anybody to access them. Users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Text or external applications. The service is free to use over the Internet. But yet twitter has its flaws, keep in mind that every time you do a status update, or publish something new but equally irrelevant on your Twitter feed, if you do it from your cell phone your carrier will charge you for every text message you send. And unless you have a plan that includes text messages, Twittering can be an expensive hobby, as Jason learned the hard way. As the masses get addicted to Twitter, people will start texting all sorts of things to the service, only to later realize that they shared some information that they shouldn't have. While you Twitter, just keep in mind that you are broadcasting whatever you're doing to the whole world (or at least your friends and colleagues). Please don't tell us about what diseases, which you got them from and who you've been doing what with. The only difference I see between the two is that Twitter makes your private conversation with another person, a conversation that is in all likeliness irrelevant to anyone else reading it, available for everyone to view. It is a generally recommended practice for bloggers to disclose some information about themselves. Some personal disclosure allows your audience to have a closer connection with you when reading your content. There is of course the problem of disclosing too much information, or all the wrong kind of information about you.
