Twitter is the world’s most popular micro-blogging platform and it’s growing at an exponential rate. Many people use Twitter for several reasons such as celebrities creating a so-called fan page to post updates that allows fans around the world to read them, bloggers promoting their blog and some others sharing their thoughts and opinions towards a particular subject. From the reasons I’ve mentioned above, you’d have noticed that Twitter doesn’t seems to attract any kids probably around the the 13-16 age group at all. My peers will definitely be either on Facebook, finding new friends and interacting with them or hanging out in online gaming platforms.
Yes, I’d say that the numbers are growing but they only make up a small percentage of the Twitter population as kids don’t really bother much about the social web and the advanced technology world we are currently living in. I’ve personally asked my friends and classmates “What is Twitter?” and I’m not surprised that they gave me the weird look which obviously shows that they didn’t know how this popular social platform.
However, some kids have shown tremendous results of which a couple of them have managed to attract over 10,000 followers on Twitter! So who are these 5 kids? Check out the list below…
