Seven years ago today
The very first tweet was sent.
Now over 200 million users
Participate in this social experiment.
With up to 140 characters
400 million tweets each day
Are sent across the platform
When people have something to say.
It’s never going to be detailed,
Yet it is informative & concise.
Having access 24/7
Is actually rather nice.
From big businesses and presidents
To thought-leaders and Mums
It seems everyone is interested
In this instant form of fun.
There are trending topics and hashtags
And it’s always mentioned on TV.
It has broken through many barriers
To become the success we now see.
So happy birthday Twitter;
You are really second to none!
7 tweet-filled years have flown by
So in dog years, that makes you one!
Twitter is 7 is a poem written by Ms Moem.
