What are you doing?


Twitter.com is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that allows you to stay connected with your friends and family via phone, IM, their twitter page, the twitter mobile site and more. Twitter believes that their service will help people stay up-to-date with each other's day-to-day lives by answering the question, "what are you doing?" using 140 characters or less (called a "tweet"). Your answer may be as simple as "I'm doing my homework right now," and you wouldn't normally send someone an email just to let them know that. However, "real life happens between blog posts and emails," and twitter thinks that sharing all of those little things that happen will help keep people feeling connected and like a part of each other's lives.
