Twitter is fast becoming the preferred social networking site for partyphiles, yuppies, glitterati, and celebrities; and it is easy to understand why. Twitter gives you the chance to share your nuggets of thought with the whole world, or at the very least, the people who follow you. More importantly, it gives you instant information in easily digestible portions (140 characters). Also, this no nonsense, no frills, social networking website allows you to take a peek at the people you wish to. You never have to follow people back, unless you want to. This allows for you to feel like a star and get all the attention that you want; or gives you the perfect avenue for stalking your favorite celebrity or campus crush. The possibilities are endless (well, almost. You have to observe the 140 character rule, but there is Twitlonger for that) with Twitter; especially because more and more people are logging on, and an increasing number of applications are being custom made for the site. So, if you still have not started tweeting, here are some of the tweets you’ve missed:
