Twitter is one of my favorite applications.  Maybe because I love brevity.  Maybe it's because it's so fast moving.  Or maybe it's because Twitter really is all about interacting with other people. Twitter is a micro-blogging site that allows you to post (or tweet) up to 140 characters.  With this limitation, you really have to focus on what you want to say (and get it across clearly).
