Twitter is a social networking and micro blogging platform that lets users send text updates via web, SMS and instant messaging. On Twitter, users have their own profile pages that display their latest updates. Users can also become "friends" with one another, or simply be a "follower" of another. Other than reading another person's profile page, a user can also receive others updates through SMS, RSS, IM or 3rd party applications. 

Micro Blogging is a growing area in the social networking and mobile blogging industry. Jaiku, which is a Twitter clone that had features very similar to Twitter, has been purchased by Google at the rumored price of $12 million dollars.
