Tweek Tweek

Instead of putting the same old starting line ” Its been long sice i have written a blog ….blah blah blah” lemme put it straight this time ( Though i am very well successful in conveying the msg this time also :P )
Lately i was reading an article in the newspaper which spoke about ‘Twitter’ and i must say , this is the latest hot property in social network, afterall its 1.2 million strength of audience has risen to 6 million in just one year : Legendary!! When i first joined Twitter , I felt like i was in a noisy room where everyone was shouting and nobody was listening.Frankly i did not like the concept at the first use, it was less of a friends chatting tool and more of a self-promoting site .But soon i learnt the difference between a ‘friend’ and a ‘Follower’.Relationships on twitter are not reciprocal like that on Facebook or Orkut,here one can follow anyone without being followed himself - Good for me , coz on doing some wandering in twitter i discovered that some high profile and celebrity users like Ashton Kutcher, Jimmy Fallon , Lance Armstrong, Kevin Rose are a part of it. ( Boys……Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, Demi Moore can also be followed here :) ), so next time if you see some celebrities in my following list( probably as ‘followers’ some day [wink] ),don’t be astonished . Oh and by-d-way U.S. presidential election used Twitter as part of their election campaigns.President Obama certainly did, as did Hilary Clinton and John McCain.
Some news for PHP lovers ( including myself)……..In late April 2008, TechCrunch reported that, due to downtime related to scaling problems, Twitter would abandon Ruby on Rails as their web framework and start from scratch with PHP or Java. Although this news was soon debunked , but get ready all you php guys…there CAN be scope someday :)
And guess who are the potential expected buyers of Twitter-The very same Yahoo and Google!!
The best feature of this site are its applications (nearly 2,000). And the beauty of Twitter is that you dont have to commit to it;no one expects you to read all the tweets rolling in
So what are we waiting for ……….Happy Tweeting to All !!
