Twitter is one of the many social media platforms that people use to communicate ideas, jokes and other types of information. The information is displayed in what are known as tweets which usually allow the twitter users a 140 character limit to share anything. Twitter is used globally and can be used for business, personal use and for group communications. The site is a fun way to interact with others and it differs from other platforms in that the user gets to read the content in a short period and decide whether he or she would like to open any links found on the tweet to read it further.
