Twitter never ceases to amaze me. With the amount of people that are joining each day, of course it is booming. All big companies and celebrities have twitters these days. I think a personal twitter as opposed to a professional twitter can vary in many ways. On my own personal twitter, I’m usually replying to my friends, retweeting funny stuff, and tweeting about my favorite sports teams. If I really wanted to gain a huge following and recognition from the twitter world, it would be completely different. I usually try to be funny compared to a more professional approach.
