| Description: |
|
Since Twitter posts or "tweets" are limited to 140 characters, we must learn to use commonly accepted abbreviations and shortened URLs. We present a few tips for writing tweets, and cover the use of two special characters, the #hashtag and @at-sign. The presentation also introduces the concepts of an application program interface, which enables others to develop applications using Twitter, and trending topics and citizen journalism.
