The name can be misleading, but it is really the simplest form of blogging. Twitter allows its users to post updates about what they are doing, reach out to others who are “following” their updates, and network with other tweets. By giving the users the ability to follow and be followed by others it opens up large world of social networking.

To get connected:
1. Go to Twitter
2. Create a user name and password
3. Start adding people

You can search the network within Twitter by name or email to see who you already know who is using Twitter.

Wired Magazine had this to say:

“It validates the Twitter concept as something that people want. And people want it all over the world.”

Twitter is a part of the blinding speed that social networks are accelerating. It is more than addicting it is something that creates amazing results. Networking, community, and relationships that can all help you get the word out about what you and your business are great at doing. Not only are individuals using Twitter to boost resumes and get their skills noticed but also, churches, schools, sports teams, newspapers, are all using it to have a bigger broader voice; you name the source and I bet they Twitter.

There are applications for iPhone, Blackberry, Palm, and other phones. You can use it on your desktop through applications like Tweet Deck (my favorite), on your iPod Touch and through SMS messaging.
