Hey everyone! So I just recently made twitter for myself... and I was wondering.. what's twitter really for? I know it's for making tweets so that your followers can know what you're up to or you can know what you're followers are up to... but is that all it really is for? Also another question, can you upload like an album in twitter? Or just one pic at a time? Anyway, follow me in twitter if you want to!! https://twitter.com/WayneLala P.S. Wayne Lala is not my real name just like a code name. LOL

I think it is a very convenient way to post your news or latest status from Twitter. Your followers can be your relatives and friends. They can learn your situation as soon as possible. The news can be spread very fast through Twitter. I love China

Twitter is the most popular social networking site among the people. It’s a place for informing people that what are you doing, your choices, what’s going on in world, do discussion on any topic by twitting. With twitter you can rapidly do message communication with the group of people. you can do your business promotion by giving information regarding to your company services and products. it's an easy platform to get higher customers for your business.

As you mentioned, I guess Twitter is just making tweets so your followers get updated with what you do. There's also the trending topics where people voice out their opinions on the latest issues. I joined twitter three years ago and I found this type of social networking quite interesting because it's unique. I also like it because famous personalities are on there. I see you're from the Philippines too. Last week with the bad weather, there was news about someone who can't contact rescue services. She tried calling by phone and all the lines were busy. She tried Twitter and it worked. They got rescued. It's great that Twitter, often used for plain social networking, became a useful tool in an emergency situation. As for uploading an album, I think we can only upload one pic at a time.

I don't think you can see online people in twitter. Followers are the people who see your tweets and when you follow someone, like for example Katy Perry, you'll get what she tweets... I think only. LOL

A second the motion, I also registered myself but I never try to explore the site. They said, most of the people follow a certain person. It is a social network.
