Twitter is a free social networking microblogging service that allows registered members to broadcast short posts called tweets.
To weave tweets into a conversation thread or connect them to a general topic, members can add hashtags to a keyword in their post.
Tweets, which may include hyperlinks, are limited to 140 characters, due to the constraints of Twitter's Short Message Service (SMS) delivery system.
Founder: Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams
