The latest of the social networking and blogging craze is Twitter. The site is loved by Internet users, celebrities and businesses. The site offers users the ability to post short, snappy statutes/blogs ("tweets") to share information, talk to friends or just tell the world what's on your mind.

Some users admit to posting several or more times daily, which has led to questions about the addictive nature of social networking sites, as can be read here:

Celebrities including Stephen Fry have much praise for the site:

I haven't used twitter myself, as twitter seems very one-dimensional (based solely around "tweets"). I opt for Facebook, where you can post status updates, but also have instant messaging, email and picture/video uploading and sharing.
