Twitter is another popular social networking site that enables users to send and read messages called "tweets". Twitter messages are public but you can also send private messages. It is also a medium that lets users follow your daily activities by following your account.
In the Philippines, celebrities (from cinema, sports, newscasters and politics) reached their fans through this site. They update fans about their movies, mall shows, tv shows and most of all their feelings.
Some are educational like Kim Atienza, whom I am very much fond of because he tweets interesting facts about everything. Another is "ihatequotes" who tweeted inspirational quotes. Others, use it as an interaction with their viewers for their news reporting like Channel 2's late night news programming called Bandila.
Another famous about twitter is the "Word War" of celebrities with some fans and celebrities with co-celebrities. Last 2010, celebrities Angelica Panganiban and Claudine Barretto had a heated argument about Claudine's alleged special romance with their common friend whom Claudine think that Angelica was spreading the rumor. She even sent death threats for Angelica through their common friends. It lasted months and end up when the mother studio of Panganiban warned Claudine to stop those allegations or else they will sue her.
Last March 3, 2011 Angelica Panganiban involved herself again in "word war" to a certain anilmorales, who is a fan of football player Phil Younghusband. This is about Angelica commenting about Phil's indie film that he should concentrate on football than showbiz.
The latest is Cong. Manny Pacquiao's reply to his follower (@RAndRat) regarding his "No" vote for the House of Representatives' impeachment trial against Omb. Merceditas Gutierrez. He tweeted "eh di magreklamo ka sa lolo mong panot hahahaha". And on March 23, 2011 Pacquiao closed his month-old account.
With these incidents, celebrities should watch their tweets because it can easily attract criticisms.
