Twitter started its life as an online short messaging service wherein people can broadcast anything they want to say in 140 characters or less and can subscribe (‘follow’) to messages from people of their interest. There was confusion initially on where exactly the service would fit having Facebook/Orkut like social applications doing them already. The Iranian revolution happened and the architecture of the application funneled sharing of news, information and media from the revolution, exposing the dark side of autocratic governance. Even the biggest of cable and satellite media in the United States featured news sections concentrating on tweets from the epicenter and used them on public debates.This was a major marketing boom that spiraled the service so much that the downs due to system overload were frequent then.

Where do you like to go swimming?
Whether it is swimming in the pool the Ocean, thoughts ,ideas, physical or intellectual, it is a fun activity to do. I learnt to swim in the water when I was in my 3rd grade and have loved it ever since.

Where would I love to go swimming?
Fresh water. Although I don't oppose intellectual swim, its just that I do the latter in fast paced and short dashes a few times everyday. Fresh water swimming creates a sensation of being free, unconstrained as opposed to the two dimensional planar movement we do bin moving on the Earth's surface.
It is one of the best exercises, it tones more muscles than localized exercises at the gym. The change at the core of the body is in alignment with the other parts that it prevents any long term injuries like the lumbar and back pains that are experienced frequently by localized exercisers.
The stance gets improved, the gluts get toned. We start to stand and move in an open chested fashion that creates an aura of confidence in us. That is a very important attribute that could aid in our social life, be it at work place or at parties.
