What's Twitter?

Twitter is a website which allows you to subscribe to user-generated information contained in 140 character messages. You can find other user's information you consider important and follow their 'feed'. Twitter can also work with any cell phones capable of text messaging, not just smart phones. In other words you can publish 'tweets' by sending a text message, and you can choose which user's tweets you want delivered via text message to your phone.
