Twitter Adventure

Twitter Blog

The Twitter experience has been great I actually use twitter often when I want a lot of the people who follow me to know more information about something that I was doing. Twitter is an online social networking and micro blogging service that enables users to send and read short 140-character text messages, called "tweets". Registered users can read and post tweets, but unregistered users can only read them. Users access Twitter through the website interface, SMS, or mobile device app. There has been a couple of snags with the twitter service over the years but it seems to be corrected

I used the following tools when posting messages to twitter

With all of these tools I still find myself going to my computer to do a tweet it’s much faster and the tool was designed natively to work better on the web on a computer. I also did not like that I was limited to characters on twitter but this is to protect space I think and prevent users form typing a book. Although I have seen some books created based of the tweets over a year on a topic.
