Twitter is an online service that allows people to send short messages to large numbers of people very quickly. These messages are known as tweets. Twitter began as a way to help a small group of people quickly share ideas. However, it soon became an important way for people to share news. People share news about sports, for example. When Japan scored a goal in the 2010 soccer World Cup, viewers wrote 2,940 tweets per second within 30 seconds after the goal. It is also used for serious news. For example, in 2009, people in Iran used Twitter to describe what was happening after the elections. This was important because it was difficult to find this news in traditional media.
