I'm curious how twitter works so I got into it! It's about sharing and learning lots of information...you are interested in to. A great communication and brilliant tool for everyone whether it's for personal or business thing. You can retweet (RT) information that you think it's helpful to your twitter friends or followers!

One interesting part is, Twitter would know the very latest world news before it's on the newspapers or TV just by browsing on the search!

I like Twitter because i can shoot all my friends a message at the same time. It saves so much time. Pretty cool getting people to follow you and it is really cool to see what other people are doing all over the world.

I mostly use Twitter to follow interesting people (because I live in Sweden, were Twitter isn't really that popular, tweeting isn't that much fun). So the power to be able to choose my news sources and have them directly in my phone is extremely helpfull to me.

I like being able to tell people about important but obscure news stories and tell them about my day. Similarly, I like to see what's on other people's minds.

I use twitterfox to pop up people's updates as I am browsing the internet. It's the perfect way.

I like that I can easily connect with many friends across the country and keep track of what's going on in their lives, 140 characters at a time. It takes less time than facebook, and far less time than keeping track of them over the phone.

I also like hearing from leaders in various industries that I'm interested in, to hear what's going on in that industry. For example, in the telecom industry, I can hear from people at AT&T, Apple, Cisco, and any number of other companies to get news that's relevant to my interests and that I wouldn't get other places.

The "community" it has created. I am now friends with people whom I would likely never had the chance to meet, had it not been for Twitter.

I think the best thing is that you can interact with "big names" on a personal level (or somewhat personal). Boundaries do not exist.
