What Are You Doing On Twitter.com?

Twitter.com has grown over 1300% last year. That means that many of us are joining Twitter in droves. Are you also tweeting? Why are you on this website where people only have to post what they are doing? There are several reasons why people join twitter. Ask a group of people and you may come up with findings that may surprise you. Here are some of them.

1. I am on Twitter because my friends are there.

2. I have joined this because I wanted to know what exactly is this website. Why has it grown so much? I am in Internet business and am exploring to find out why so many people joined twitter. Why cannot I make something similar or different and make money?

3. I am on Twitter because celebrities like Oprah and Ashton Kutcher are there. I am their follower and keep track of what they are doing. I am always informed of new developments in their life.

4. I am trying to market my services on Twitter. Here is an audience of millions - most of them can be my potential customers. I am thinking of ways to make them buy from me. The sheer number of members makes my mouth water with thoughts of profit.

5. I am on Twitter to fight my campaign of animal rights (or some other campaign). I find it cruel to kill animals. I feel that more people should know the torture the animals are undergoing.

6. I am on twitter to meet new people. When I get bored I read what others are saying and join conversations. I am having few friends in my real life and we hardly meet now a days. I have a need to connect with people. After all I am a social animal.

7. I frankly do not know why I joined. I have a habit of joining any website and social network which is popular. That way I feel good about myself. Honestly it is serving no purpose but I feel good.
