Pros and Cons of Twitter (PROJECT)




Twitter is an information network, used my millions of people. It connects people from around the world with different ideas, opinions, facts and news stories daily. Twitter allows you to 'follow' what you find interesting and 'tweet' about your own ideas.

Pros-
Quick and Easy to 'follow' someone.
High level of interaction, allows you to communicate directly.
Allows you to 'follow' celebrities and people in the public eye.
Can 'favorite' tweets and 're-tweet' so other people tweets appear on your profile.
By putting a keyword in the search box you are instantly directed to 'tweets' relating to your search.


Cons-
'Tweets' appear quickly, but can then get lost in the world of Twitter.
Your limited to 140 characters per post, not much if you've got a lot to say!
Can only post links to one photo at a time
You don't know how many times your 'tweets' are being read, it could be by thousands!

Twitter is great for quick updates. It allows ‘normal’ people to connect with celebrities and their friends at the same time. More and more businesses are using Twitter as a way of interaction, its quick and easy search boxes are a huge bonus. However Twitter isn’t as private as other web 2 apps, although privacy levels can be altered.
