Micro Blogging

Wiki defines Micro blogging as form of blogging. Which differs from a traditional blog in that its content is typically much smaller, in both actual size and aggregate file size. A microblog entry could consist of nothing but a short sentence fragment, or an image or embedded video. Some popular Micro blogs include Twitter, Emotionr, IRateMyDay, Frazr, Moodmill, Hictu, MySay, Jaiku, Tumblr.

When Twitter was launched first, it had been criticized by many bloggers as a useless startup, but Twitter was revolutionary, after launch of Twitter many similar services got launched. In India, even though many twitter like services started, a few of them are successful and others failed, still many new services are launching one after one.

Micro blogging is slowly moving into the mainstream. In the United States, for example, Presidential candidate Barack Obama microblogged from the campaign trail using Twitter, one of the most popular microblogging services. Traditional media organizations, including The New York Times and the BBC, have begun to send headlines and links in microblog posts. Other potential applications of microblogging include traffic and sports updates and emergency broadcast systems.

As an extension, it will also start syndicating Promoted Tweets to Twitter clients like TweetDeck, Twhirl and TwitterBerry.
