What is it?
A social media platform in which you can post pictures or messages 140 characters or less.
Here's a video from CommonCraft that explains how twitter works
When to use it?
Anyone can follow you or tweet at you, so this is a great social networking site you can use for work without giving access to your personal life. You can tweet as yourself or a group/organization.

Search #calibchat to see what's being said and when the next virtual chat will be.
