Whooo's on Twitter

You can think of Twitter as a micro-blogging social network. You use your computer or mobile phone to communicate short messages, or "tweets", that are limited to 140 characters. People can sign up on Twitter to follow your tweets as you choose to follow people/accounts that you find valuable and relevant.
