Twitter is a micro blogging service, which gives a possibility to communicate between participants, a certain mixture of the blog and ICQ. It allows the user to send short messages in the news line which other people can subscribe to (if to use Twitter terminology, you can start to “follow” this person). The technology is clear — as soon as someone, whom you watch or follow, publishes a new message, it appears in your Twitter line._x000D_

Twitter was created in San Francisco in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Noy Glassom, Biz Stone and Evan Williams. These four people participated in the R&D project with Odeo company. In October, 2006 the company was redeemed by the head department, and the former employees of Odeo opened the Obvious Company, which directed both Odeo and Twitter. Twitter became rather popular in April, 2007 when the Company Twitter, Inc. separated from the Company Obvious._x000D_

The Main Features of the Twitter_x000D_
_x000D_
The first feature of the Twitter is that one message can contain no more than 140 symbols. At first, it seems that it is very inconvenient, but then you understand that a rigid restriction of the quantity of symbols forces to state the thoughts extremely laconically that affects positively the information value of the news line._x000D_
_x000D_
The second feature is that Twitter is often read through special programs, instead of through the Internet browser._x000D_
_x000D_
The next feature is that it is possible to answer the publications of the other people in the Twitter. To answer the other person’s message, it is necessary to begin the answer with a sign, then, to write a nickname of that person whom you answer. Even if the person does not follow you, he/she will receive your answer. Thus, this answer will be visible to everybody who is signed both on you and on the person whom you answer._x000D_
_x000D_
The fourth feature is that, through the Twitter, it is possible to send personal messages which are not visible to other people. It is possible to send personal messages only if your addressee is following you._x000D_
_x000D_
Why do you have to use Twitter if you have already had a blog and an account in a social network, as you can send personal messages by mail or by means of ICQ, Skype or Jabber?_x000D_
_x000D_
For successful use of the Twitter, it is necessary to understand that the Twitter is not a blog, and it is rather a means of communication and obtaining new information. You can get acquainted with the help of the Twitter with many interesting people whom you could not communicate in other circumstances. For the communication in the Twitter, it is not necessary to add each other as a friend or in a list of contacts. Even if the person is not signed on your updating, you can answer his/her messages by means of a sign @. After several answers, he/she will surely pay attention to you, and you can continue your communication through personal messages or through the same Jabber or ICQ._x000D_
_x000D_
By default, standard settings of the Twitter allow other users to see the whole list of your messages. However, there is a possibility to limit access to some twitters in order to they could not be seen by readers and search engines. In order to read messages of other users, it would be necessary to subscribe for their Twitter, to “follow” them._x000D_
_x000D_
All users can send and receive twits, using the Twitter web interface, compatible external applications (for example, for smart phones), short-message services like SMS in mobile communication. There are also special client programs for sending twits, however, they should correspond to the policy of the Twitter and they should not break special requirements. Sending tweets by means of SMS is free; nevertheless, “according to the tariff of the mobile network operator, nobody cancelled the cost of outgoing messages” (Ellis and Kent, 2011)._x000D_

The Twitter brought an absolutely new style of communication – laconic, compressed, capacious! 140 symbols do not allow speaking in a circumlocutory manner. It is necessary to get used to this style, but a couple of days of supervision for skilled twitters – and it is possible to join this community perfectly, if, certainly, you want and are ready to learn to state your thoughts shortly and accurately.
