Tweetback3

Twitter has taught me that it is only the self important people that feel the need to tell everyone that they are making a midnight Slushie run to the 7-11 down the street or that they cannot believe that their mother asked them to help fold a load of laundry. Over the past three months, I have seen my twitter friends rally to support Cancer Research , Premature Birth Research, Plagiarism, and help convince a mutual friend to end an abusive relationship. I have been able to watch the trending topics and see that people are really active in a lot of different things and that they can find people that share those interests. Instead of being a place to “toot your own horn,” when used correctly, Twitter is a place that people can find others with common interests and goals. It can be used for good and help in world changing. People are genuinely concerned about others and are looking for different ways to show it.
