Introduction
Twitter is an online microblogging service that distributes short messages known as tweets. Tweets are influential in molding culture and politics in the 21st century. Twitter was founded by Evan Williams, Biz Stone, and Noah Glass in 2004.
Earlier Twitter was a free SMS with a social networking element. In 2010, Twitter uncovered "Promoted Tweets," which are advertisements that would be displayed in search results.
