As a popular social network website, Twitter is growing quickly day by day. As far as I know, there are many people who are mumbers of Twitter and send tweets everyday. Of course, I have joined it since three months ago and made some friends there.
So, have you heard of Twitter? Why you join it and How much time do you spend on Twitter?
Thanks for all myLotters.

I am very familiar of twitter. I already gain social network friends for almost 500 followers and I appreciate it much. I kept sending my tweets everyday and I enjoy reading some tweets. I give time to do tweets and read some tweets for 2-3 hours a day.

I joined Twitter pretty early on, but have found it to be pretty useless as far as a social networking site goes. The people that follow me only want to send out links to their latest, greatest online money making scheme, and when I did tweet I just felt like I was talking to myself. I pretty much just stick to Facebook now as it is the best way to keep up and interact with friends and family online.

There are some spammers indeed full of Twitter, who pollute the surroundlings of Twitter.

I like twitter because, it is very simple to handle. Making tweets is easy and many members will watch it.It is free to write some thing. No restrictions imposed. I am freely placing my links. Some forums are restricting, even deleting membership for posting the links.They think that their forum should not be a flat form for publishing the members' links. So people are joining in a hurry and the Twitter grown up amazingly.

Simple is the key to success for Twitter. In fact, most people choose Twitter is just for its ease.

Hi there! Yes I have a Twitter account. It is becoming more popular these days because more celebrities are using it (specially A list hollywood stars). I have joined the site because initially i find it as a place where i could express thoughts or what I do but later on I got a little bored. LOL. But I think it is a good site. I followed my favorite celebrities and i got to hear whats new with them.... or stuff their doing. Its pretty cool. But I spend more time with mylot now. :)Happy mylotting!

I am on Twitter, and when I first joined it, I was not impressed. Then came the Iranian elections, and everyone in Iran was using it to decide where to meet, where things were happening, protests and such. That made me see it had real value, even though I am here in the United States.
I write for Associated Content, and this month, they are having a contest on Twitter, so I decided to participate. I have been using Twitter more and more. I still think it's a lot more hype than value, but I do like it better now that I am participating in the contest. (You tweet about your articles/writing for the AC contest.) Whether or not I stay as active once the contest ends is another question, however???

[i]Hello getbrowser,
I heard it from CNN and I joined it after. I am not very active at it. I think it more of promoting or socializing. Anyway if you can explain further how does twitter work. I might spend more time on it. Have a nice day![/i]

There you can get the latest information that you care of, follow your celebrities and so on. At the same time, you can make friends with others too.

Oh I see, that's why sometimes I received some email that somebody is following me. Unfortunately, I haven't done anything yet. Maybe I can use it someday.

Yes, Its really good simple social networking site to update our information and status that where we are at this moment. I have observed this as part of my site SEO activity. There I found we can promote about our site very easily as many people are following others.
Its really good and Its really supporting my promotions.
