My introduction to Twitter

I got introduced to Twitter by Rafiq Phillips.



I registered on Twitter out of curiosity. At first i couldn't really get it. But the more people i followed the more information i received and after a while, using twitter became clear to me. Follow my tweets here.

Using Twitter I am always up to date with the Latest news. Currently i am following iol and BBC News to give me the latest updates in South Africa and around the World.


I enjoyed using the IM to track certain words in Twitter. It displays any update of anyone around the world that updates in Twitter using the word you are tracking.
Usually i track the word "coffee" when i explain the Twitter Tracking option to someone totally new to Twitter.

Using Twitter exposed me to new Sites and tools e.g del.icio.us , digg , muti , flickr , amatomu , helipad , kwippy , facebook.

The list can go on forever......

Twitter brought me to Plurk which is another micro-blogging platform.

I will always use twitter to greet everyone in the morning and to receive the latest news and information updated randomly by the "Friends" i follow.

You can add your comments to how you got introduced to twitter and how twitter exposed you to a new WwWorld....
