The most popular microblogs include Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr.
The information can be a short sentence or a link to a web page or other multimedia content. Microblogs, initially called, Tumblelogs, allow sharing of short snippets of information in a quick and easy manner. Microblogging has evolved to meet these concerns. There is also a need for enhanced connectivity and interactivity more than what a conventional blog post can afford. However, time is a very limited resource and there needs to be a way to get information across concisely without bogging the reader with too many details. There are blogs on almost every subject on the Internet and most blogs allow interactive communication between the author and the readers. Blogs have provided an indispensable platform to express both personal opinions and entrepreneurial ideas unhindered by the limitations of conventional media. The Internet has revolutionized the way we share information. TweetDeck - Twitter & Microblogging Need for Microblogging
