Twitter somewhat started late 2006 with its founder Jack Dorsey.  A couple of months soon Twitter became a big hit in online social networking.  And after barely two years, members ballooned up to more than a million members.

What is now about twitter is its simplicity to get updates to your network where the tool is designed to simply accept update of no more than 140 characters.  It is like a mini blog where they coined it as a microblogging tool.

The tool is inserted to your profile page such as your blog and other profile pages for readers to get a glimpse on what your are currently doing or may also be what you are currently thinking.  This makes it look like a blog within a blog, a mini blog perhaps.

Accordingly, it is not just about that but also for third party add-ons that many users like such as the one shared by the Bizdrivenlife blog that includes;  Twitterfeed, Twitternotes, Twittermail, TweetStats, Twitpic and many more.

I had started to use twitter over a month ago on my previous blog and has since then stopped and was not able to bring it on this blog.  Well, I guess twitter being the next big thing online I must get back to using it again!

I would love to hear your thoughts on twitter.
