Twitter Vocabulary - What's The Standard?
You say to-mae-toe, I say to-mah-toh. I think it's time we standardized Twitter vocabulary. We're the educators, for crying out loud - we make the rules.
Don't we?
As far as I can tell, there aren't standard terms for the following Twitter items. I will highlight my preferences in red, but am interested in your understanding of the world of Twitter:
- What do you call the actual types of communication that are sent via Twitter - Twits? Tweets? Twitters?
- What do you call a person that uses Twitter - A Twitterer? A Twit? A Twitter?
- What is the equivalent of of the word "blogosphere" in the world of Twitter - The Twitterverse? Twitterworld? The Twitter States?
