Jack Dorsey, one of the founders and current CEO of social networking site Twitter, originally defined Twitter as “a short burst of inconsequential information”. What started as the simple sending and reading of 140 character ‘inconsequential’ tweets, has evolved frenetically into one of the largest microblogging platforms in the world, currently boasting over 300 million active users.

Twitter was created in 2006 with Dorsey publishing the first ‘tweet’ on March 21st entitled “just setting up my twttr”. While perhaps an uninspiring first tweet, since then the San Francisco company has grown exponentially to 25 offices and 3800 employees around the world.

Users access Twitter through mobile applications or websites seeking to engage in a vast array of media consumption. Reviewing news, engaging in conversations, undertaking self-promotion and performing social grooming are frequent Twitter interactions.  

Twitter provides users the ability to send a tweet to a group of followers or directly to an individual, containing links, images, and videos. Bloggers utilize features such as hashtags to group posts by topic, retweets to forward favored messages, or likes to lend support to a post. Twitter usage tends to spike during prominent world events as enthusiasts turn to the platform encouraged by its reputation as an instant source of commentary and entertainment.
