Twitter? Say What?

What is Twitter?

Twitter is a micro-blogging platform that has changed the way people communicate with each other. Millions of people come to Twitter to share their ideas and updates with the world. You may be limited to only 140 characters per post, but that doesn't mean you should only talk about what you are having for your lunch.

Twitter is surprisingly underrated among businesses and the every day folks. People are coming around slowly, but there is a lot that you can get from your micro-blog. And thanks to the hundreds of tools available, you can get more done in less. Whether you want to promote your new product or find like-minded people, you can do it all on Twitter.

“If you are not on Twitter, your are missing out big time!”
