Lately, Twitter has been all over the news; it’s become quite a phenomenon. Unless you’re plugged-in enough to have experienced it yourself already, you might wonder just what Twitter is and why you might care. Should you hop in and join the crowd?
Twitter is, as my headline alludes, a microblogging service. On a regular blog we can “talk” for as long as we like, making posts short or long to suit the subject and the author. On Twitter, each post is limited to 140 characters.
That’s 140 CHARACTERS, not words.
