Everyone in America knows about or own a Twitter. Twitter is a social network that is used by many people to keep in touch with one another by reading tweets. It seems that lately social networks have been the cause of many teen on teen violence. Many use sites such as Twitter and Facebook to keep up on fellow peers while others use it to harass people. People can go on there and say whatever they want to, to whomever they want. If somebody read something that they dont like, all they have to do is reply to it and thats where all the problems start. Then, you can show your location everytime you tweet so all your followers can know where you are at every minute. I just think that overall, Twitter is a big problem. To me its a waste of time and its just a way for people to keep tabs on others every move. Even though Twitter is a very popular site, it is not the #1 social network that people choose to go on. According to http://www.ebizba.com/ as of November 2011, Facebook is still the #1 social network, with Twitter coming in at #2. Facebook has an estimate of 700,000,000 monthly visitor and Twitter has only 200,000,000. I do believe that Twitter will become the most popular social network within the next year.
