Social Media: Twitter

Twitter is a micro-blogging and social network platform where users can follow people and upload posts that are called “tweets” that’ll show up on heir follower’s timelines, as well as interact with other user’s tweets by liking and retweeting them.

Twitter has boasted quite recently that the social media platform has had 330 million monthly active users, as well as having 145 active users everyday.

As well as being able to follow users and post and interact with tweets, Twitter also allows users to directly message other users, much like other social media platforms, and twitter also allows for its users to create group chats and invite another users, which much like direct messaging, is also a common feature among social media platforms.

One thing that is great about twitter is than many celebrities and idols along with popular people on the internet, as well brands and companies have twitter accounts, so users can follow their favourite celebs and brands to see what they’re up to and check up on their announcements and upcoming events.

Pros: It allows people to check and keep up on their favourite celebrities, sports players, artists and bands, brands and companies, internet content creators etc.

Cons: Twitters DMCA and spam violation systems are often manipulated by users to force the suspension of one’s account, and when an account is suspended, twitter will say that it had violated its terms of service, without specifying which rules the user has allegedly violated.
