Hello! In this video, I'm going to talk about Twitter, perhaps my "main" social network.

What is Twitter?

Twitter is a social network created on July 13, 2006. It was invented by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams. Currently, it has 326 million users. This isn't anything compared to Facebook with 2.271 billion users or WhatsApp, which has 1.5 billion users nowadays.

You can also use Twitter to read news, be aware of trending topics, or see memes when you are bored. Another functionality that Twitter has is that you can direct message your friends.
