Originally, it referred to birds chirping happily especially in the spring (as in this clip from Bambi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Qq-dGMVOzc&NR=1) It could also refer to brisk conversation or gossip (All the girls were a-twitter when the men entered the dance floor.)

Now it most nearly means to use the social networking site Twitter.com, where one can send "tweets" and chirp about the going ons of everyday life. To pay homage to the original definition the site has a bird as its mascot.
