Agent – Twitter

Act - Twitter is a free social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers.

Scene – People throughout the world on the Internet or cell phone

Purpose – to get a message or specific idea sent across to one another

Agency – to comprehend or understand messages. This allows users or Tweeters to communicate effectively.

I think one major reason Twitter is being used is because it’s a good way to keep in touch with busy friends. Some may think that you may feel too connected and don’t want to know what they are doing every single moment of their lives. But, in my opinion if you have a close relative or family member I would like to know what’s going on with them.

Another reason why Twitter is being used is because usually a business or a corporation has a product/idea they are promoting/selling to the consumers. Since users can only type up to 140 characters, tweets need to be specific in order for the message to be fully understand. A tweet should consider the 5 W’s [Who, what, where, when, and why]. By using this social network many ideas and products are created in a fast pace.
