Twitter

Twitter [|www.twitter.com]

Twitter is often referred to as micro-blogging, saying what you want to say in just 140 characters or less. It's a great and powerful tool for getting a short message out to a wide range of people. Discussions are regularly held on Twitter, announcements made, information passed on, etc. Interestingly, while in English 140 characters is two sentences, in Chinese 140 characters is a short essay.
