Twitter is cool as fuck. It's basically texting that everyone can see. If you create an account you can go to the section on your left that gives you options of people to follow. Start following people you like i.e. actresses, teams, etc. You can also find friends from Facebook and Instagram that has an account to follow.
The thing that I like about Twitter is that you can talk/text with celebrities and people in the sports and news business. If you're watching something on TV like the Presidential debate you can join in with the world by Hashtagging your tweets.
During the Presidential Debate I used these tweets:
#debate
#vpdebate
#msnbc
#obama
#romney
This allows you and other people to see what the world is saying live and at that moment.
I'm a Redskins fan so I tweet:
#HTTR = Hail To The Redskins
#redskins
Hastagging is another way to see what's trending.
