Describing Twitter in 5 words or less

I was trying to compare Facebook with Twitter by a friend recently. While I was able to describe the friendship activities that happen on Facebook, I wanted to use very few words to explain Twitter. I turned to my PLN on Twitter and asked: How would you describe Twitter in 5 words or less?” Below I have shared the responses I received. Each is excellent in describing Twitter in its own way. You may follow me @gardenglen on Twitter if you wish.
