Welcome to Twitterness, a page dedicated to explaining and helping you use Twitter.
Twitter is a social networking/ micro blogging website where you can "follow" people, music groups, companies, etc. Twitter is like a daylong brainstorming and information sharing session. It is one of the most visited web-pages in the world. Twitter can be used on through website, SMS, mobile device, or Twitter client. It was created in 2006 and has more than 100 million users around the world.

On Twitter you can type messages known as Tweets that have a 140 character limit.Tweets are usually based on what you're doing at the moment, for conversational purposes, self-promotion, spam, and news. There are about 65 million tweets per day or 750 per second. Tweets are open to the public, but you can change those settings if you want to.

Sometimes when using twitter there are too many tweets at the moment causing a error to occur. When that happens the "Fail Whale" appears. When something big happens around the world, tweets are made instantaneously. Twitter is so popular that when Michael Jackson died, the Twitter server crashed.
