What is microblogging?


We all have heard of blogging. But there is a whole different category called 'microblogging' that some of you might be unfamiliar with.


Let me define what microblogging is in simple English. Microblogging is writting short messages on the web. For example, twitter. Twitter has the limit of 140 words so people are forced to write small messages to fit in. Instead of long and lengthy posts, microbloggers can just include the title and the link for the blog so that whoever is interested in reading the article may click on it rather than going through all the lengthy materials. Personally, I encourage people to write microblogs rather than the traditional blogs.
