Many people use E-mail, blogs, text messages and social websites like Facebook to keep in touch with their friends. Now there is also Twitter（微博客）. This online service lets people send short messages that are no more than 140 letters long.

Here is how it works: Users can set up their own Twitter page by joining the free service on Twitter. com. They can search the website to find friends who are also using the service. By choosing to “follow” friends, users can see their new messages. Updates appear instantly in a list form as they are written. Twittering describes writing new updates on Twitter. A tweet is an individual Twitter update, or message.

Unlike blogs, Twitter users do not have to log onto the website to post updates. They can send and receive messages through mobile phones as text messages or through E-mail. Other programs available for download make Twitter updates appear on your computer screen. People use social websites like Facebook to share information with a special group of friends. But most Twitter users make their messages public.

Twitter says its service provides a way for people to stay connected to others, through messages describing what they are doing at that moment. But twitters also use the service to get quick answers to questions or to get breaking news.

For example, when he was a presidential candidate, Barack Obama announced his choice for vice president on Twitter. Many other politicians in Washington use Twitter to share their daily activities with supporters.

Some critics say Twitter is a waste of time that takes people’s attention away from their work. Yet a growing number of users around the world see it as the latest method for busy people to get and share information quickly.
