What is Twitter? :
What is Twitter? The service asks the question "What are you doing?" While many people respond with things like "I'm taking off for lunch" or "I'm trying to repair my printer," others have found a wide variety of ways to use it as a valuable business tool.
Twitter is so named because the flow of updates is like the chirping of a bird. When you send an update, it's called a tweet. The people who tweet are called twitterers or tweeters, not twits. And when you rebroadcast a message that has appeared earlier, that's called a retweet.
When you sign up for Twitter, you get a page where your updates are published, as well as those of the people you follow. The concept of following is similar to adding friends on other social sites. Other Twitter features include the ability to send direct messages to your contacts and to mark tweets as favorites so you can find them easily later.
