What is Twitter used for? - carjis - 02-19-2014 12:35 PM

Is twitter like Yahoo Answers? What is twitter? and why do people use it?

Have you ever met someone who needed to say every tiny little thing that popped into their head? Twitter is like that, but for the internet.

No, it is not like yahoo answers. People use it to "follow" their friends. In the sense that anyone you follow can update what they are doing and you will see it on your "home page." If you are at all familiar with facebook it is basically just the "status" part. It's a big thing with college kids because you can know what your friend is up to at basically any moment. Also, a lot of celebs are using it now so people find it interesting to see what they do on a day-to-day basis. Smile

People use it to follow what people are up to everyday. A lot of businesses, celebrities and musicians use it.

Starting revolutions. LOL. No, they did it in Moldova last year!

Closer to Facebook, but without all the games and apps.

Yet.
