Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to

140 bytes in length. Updates are displayed on the user's profile page and delivered to other users who have signed up to receive them.

According to a Pew report, 19% of online Americans use twitter.

As of October 2009.

NOTE:

All the listed tweets have the word “nonprofit”.

In green, below the tweet, you’ll see Charleston, SC as the location of the “tweeter”. This is because we selected tweets in a Charleston zip code (29403).
