3. TWITTER:
“A new way to
be connected”
Twitter is an online social networking service and
microblogging service that enables its users to send
and read text-based messages of up to 140
characters, known as "tweets".
The service rapidly gained worldwide popularity,
with over 500 million active users as of 2012,
generating over 340 million tweets daily and
handling over 1.6 billion search queries per day.
Logo
Twitter has become internationally identifiable by
its signature bird logo. The original logo was in use
from its launch in March 2006 until September 2010.
A slightly modified version succeeded the first style
when the website underwent its first redesign.
