I’m sure that for the last two years you have been hearing about social networks and how they are continuously growing. The latest craze in the social media and online world is called twitter – think blogging, but without having to have a website or sign up for Blogger or WordPress.
Twitter is a microblogging site that allows you to tell the world what you’re doing at any given moment. You don’t even have to be on your computer or laptop to use Twitter. Twitter has gone mobile and you can use it on the go. There’s a hilarious video of a guy using Twitter on his cell phone while taking a shower on YouTube.
Twitter is so powerful that it is now used by several companies. Businesses have found that offline advertising is no longer as effective as it once was and market and group segments are flocking online. Many of them are on social networking sites.
Due to the widespread viral growth of Twitter, various applications have been developed for Twitter users to grow their network and maximize their results. If you haven’t signed up for Twitter, you may be missing out, you can make a lot of friends and expand your network, which is profitable for you if you have a business.
Unlike Facebook, which only allows you to have 5,000 friends, Twitter does not put a limit on the number of friends you can have. My friend Perry Belcher has over 100,000 friends, and celebrity Britney Spears has over a million Twitter friends.
If you’re not on Twitter, you’re missing out, it’s totally free to sign up, get an account now.
