Summary

Twitter: Powerful Social Media in 140 Characters or Less

The interaction between a person who posts original content and the people who reply to that content constitutes the social aspect of online social media. The content that emerges from these conversations builds virtual communities and connections that businesses can use to reach their markets and build brand loyalty. Twitter differs from other social media sites and from other blogs because its conversations take place in bite-sized, 140-character-maximum chunks, “because that’s all that can fit through SMS [mobile text messaging] systems.” Twitter isn’t the only microblogging social media service. Facebook and LinkedIn each offer options for microblogging to update your current status. While these features don’t have size limits like Twitter, their entries do tend to be short.

    I have been using Twitter some years now. One of the problems I have found is that people tweet quite uninteresting things about their life and day. That doesn't add value to me. And after you follow a lot of people, the amount messages just gets so high that it is impossible to know what is going on. But on really good use of Twitter has been connecting it with my Facebook and LinkedIn accounts so that all the tweets are published in them also. That saves some time. But anyway, about this abstract... It is good to read even for experienced Twitter user. For new users it gives really good hints and even for experienced user there is always something to improve on. I recommend reading this.
