Information

Twitter is an online social networking service that enables users to send and read short 140-character messages called "tweets".

Twitter was created in March 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams, Biz Stone and Noah Glass and by July 2006 the site was launched. The service rapidly gained worldwide popularity, with more than 100 million users who in 2012 posted 340 million tweets per day. The service also handled 1.6 billion search queries per day. In 2013 Twitter was one of the ten most-visited websites, and has been described as "the SMS of the Internet." As of December 2014, Twitter has more than 500 million users, out of which more than 284 million are active users.

Twitter is fantastic for sharing very brief ideas, informing people about some simple concepts, and having sort of light conversations. But my use for social media platforms is to discuss matters that are necessarily controversial or tough, and Twitter debates on those issues are almost never useful.
