Twitter is a popular social networking website where users can send "tweets" – short text messages of 140 characters or less – to followers as well as follow the tweets of others. Twitter has a universal search feature that you can use to submit queries and view results from every Twitter user whose status is set to public. When submitting a Twitter search query, you can sort the results based on popularity. The popularity of a single tweet is determined by the number of responses and retweets it receives.
