Twitter really seems to have taken off recently with it featuring in mainstream media. If you dont know Twitter is a micro-blogging service which allows you to let people know what you are up to in real time. Similar in a way to Facebook status.

A few weeks ago it hit the news when someone posted a message on Twitter that he was helping rescue people who were in the plane which crashed in the Hudson River in New York. The photo he posted on Twitpic I think was properly seen by millions. Here is an interview of him on the BBC news.

More recently Stephen Fry (@stephenfry) mentioned it while he was on the Jonathan Ross (@wossy) show. Stephen Fry already had a big following on Twitter but his number of followers (people who “follow” him so they can see what he has posted and what hes up to) has sky-rocketed. Phillip Schofield (@Schofe) has also been using Twitter and after posting a picture of himself in the snow and his hedge in the background it has really taken off. People are writing “Its my hedge” all over the place. A few people from Radio 1 have also joined mainly starting off from Chris Moyles (@chrisdjmoyles) after he spoke to Phillip Schofield about it all and “the hedge”. Most of the Chris Moyles team are now on Twitter along with other DJs such as Scott Mills (@scott_mills) and Greg James (@gregjames).

PS – By careful for fake Twitter profiles – there is at least one fake Chris Moyles and Scott Mills!!!
