Today, there is a site that over 1
million people use, famous and not alike to share their whereabouts, how they are felling, what they may want to eat for dinner or try cooking tomorrow, their opinions on political matters or natural disasters or whatever they are feeling.
The site known as Twitter, was created by Jack Dorsey in 2006 and inspired by his want to become a dispatcher. His words from the 60 minutes interview were that the dispatchers would "always talk about where they are going, what they are doing and how they feel. With Twitter it goes to the World."
Twitter has become an outlet for people to express themselves on any topic to any degree. 300 million people send over 1 billion tweets every day. Twitter is so popular that the President of the United States feels the need to use it not sometimes, but very often.
Although I disagree with his continuous use of Twitter because I deem it unprofessional especially in the context that he uses it in, I feel that it gives the nation a chance to see who they have put in charge, how he feels and his impact on everyone else and how they feel about it almost as though he is having a conversation with the world and through this site everyone gets to chime in. take a look at these tweets and maybe you will feel the same.Trump and Twitter, Twitter Cry
Three people I follow on Twitter are Joel Olsteen because he always sends inspirational tweets that may occasionally make it to my snapchat, Kanye West because he is entertaining and controversial and my dad because he doesn't have that many followers and he needs all the help he can get.
I believe Twitter is very powerful and the conversations that the world has tells a lot about us as a whole and the relationship that we have with each other that some don't know exists. A lot of that power has been used for bad but a lot of it has been used for good as well and for America, that is a step in the right direction.
