Can Twitter Twerminology Twive You Twazy

Twitter is cool and it’s a great medium for networking and getting realtime news, but the terminology surrounding Twitter can sound a little interesting at times. My all time favourite is Twibes, when you say the word you sound like you just ate a peanut butter sandwich and are in grade school. Twhirl, an Adobe AIR app for tweeting is a pretty decent name. But then there’s the actual Twerminology that really gets good. Here are my favourites:

• Twaffic – Twitter traffic
• Twead – To read something on twitter
• Twaunt
• Twouche –Someone acting like a big fat jerk via twitter.

And my all time favourite: Twerping – My son coined this one while I was surfing on my phone, I’m sure it has something to do with twittering at the wrong time.

For a more exhaustive list, here’s a great blog post: The Twittonary.
