Twitter - The Web 2.0 Micro-Blogging Website

Pseudorant is now part of Twitter. For those who are unfamiliar with Twitter, it is a micro-blogging social network website. Micro-Blogging is similar to blogging, but it is much more brief in what is posted. That means that users on Twitter are only able to post short updates of 140 characters or less.

These brief updates are known as “Tweets”, or posts that allow users in your social network to stay informed on what you are up to. The idea started as a way for friends and family to let each other know what was going on in everyone’s lives.

The micro-blogging phenomenon has become so popular on Twitter, that users have formed large networks of people they have never even met, and use the website in ways very similar to a chat room.

Users not only post updates, but shoot comments back and forth through their posts to respond to what other people are doing. (In addition to contacting users directly with PMs.) This way everyone can stay involved in what is going on.

Twitter is another great example of Web 2.0 in action. I was amazed to see the potential of the site. After signing up the other night my OCD got the best of me when setting up my following list. ^o^

So if anyone reading the blog is on Twitter feel free to put a follow on us. (paul@pseudorant.com) I am slowly exploring various social networks out there to understand how they work and to meet some new people.

As always thanks for checking out the site! We definitely appreciate all the support!
