What’s twitter? I will say it’s a social networking website that you can use to share maximum 140 characters messages (known as tweet) as often as you wish with people that want to be in touch with you. You also see the messages of the people that you desire to follow on the twitter site. It’s estimated that about five millions people are presently using twitter and the numbers of users are increasing daily. That makes it a powerful marketing tool to promote your business. So I hope you find the following information on twitter useful:

You can also ask questions and get instant reply from the person that post (tweet), since there is option to receive post (tweets) in your mobile phone.
