I’ve finally hopped on the Twitter bandwagon!
After some speculation and skepticism I have finally jumped on the Twitter bandwagon. I had been using the ‘ever changing’ social networking giant Facebook for about a year and was beginning to get a bit bored with the whole social media thing! I had signed up to Twitter before but never really got into it, probably through lack of time!
However, with recent developments in mobile phone technology and the introduction of great SmartPhones, the iPhone and iPod Touch, Twitter has become even easier to use and does not tie you to a PC. There are a few great Twitter applications for PC and Mac to make your Twitter life a bit easier too!
Here is a video to explain what Twitter is:

What Is Twitter?
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?
Why Use Twitter?
Why? Because even basic updates are meaningful to family members, friends, or colleagues—especially when they’re timely.
- Eating soup? Research shows that moms want to know.
- Running late to a meeting? Your co–workers might find that useful.
- Partying? Your friends may want to join you.
How Does It Work?
With Twitter, you can stay hyper–connected to your friends and always know what they’re doing. Or, you can stop following them any time. You can even set quiet times on Twitter so you’re not interrupted.
Twitter puts you in control and becomes a modern antidote to information overload.
