twitter wiki

Twitter (unofficial Chinese name: Twitter) is a social network and microblogging service. Users can enter up to 140 characters of letters or Chinese characters to update via SMS, instant messaging, email, Twitter website or Twitter client software (such as Twitterrific). Twitter was founded in San Francisco in March 2006 and was developed by Obvious. Each text update will be displayed on the user page, and each user can see these updates instantly. Although the user can set to only send text updates to his friends, the default value is that everyone can see it. Users can get text updates through the Twitter website, instant messaging, SMS, RSS, email or Twitter client software. At present, the mobile phone SMS update service is only available in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom for free (except for the SMS fee of the mobile phone provider).
