Twitter Love it or Hate It?

For this week's assignment we had to do some tweeting. Overall twitter to me, is really

great.

There is no other place on the web where you can go and find your sporting news, political news, and nearly any other news you are looking for. Also you are able to communicate with anyone, you can send a message to a major athlete, your favorite band, or your favorite celebrity, with a higher chance they will actually see it. Twitter I feel dominates Facebook for the sole reason that Twitter has purpose, Facebook is more of a friend thing (Twitter can be as well), but I feel that Twitter has become a vital tool for journalists and media outlets. Twitter has allowed for people to pool information, and have created an easy way of finding it (hash tags). At first like many, I felt Twitter was for people who were addicted to the Internet but I finally broke down and got one and have quickly realized that Twitter can be a useful tool while Facebook is for the Internet addicts of the world. The overall Twitter experience for me was great, and it has become a tool I use for school and my own personal interests.
