What is it Twitter?

twitter.com is a micro-blogging service, started up as a SMS blogging site meaning that you send text messages to twitter to update your status and twitter messages you with any updates that any person you followed post to twitter, during the first couple of years twitter was mainly reached through text messages there for twitter updates had a limit of 140 characters the same limit as how many charters one standard SMS can contain.

but as the iPhone and other smart-phones have evolved twitter focus have change to now being a mobile client focused network

follow/unfollow
just like any other normal socialnetwok you can connect to other users, on twitter this function is called “follow” twitter is based on an open social structure as you can normally follow any person you want to without needing the approval of the person being followed

twitter it both used by private people but to a wide extent it is used as an expert network where you connect to people/companies that are experts with in a felt that interests your. Much like any blog or new-site.

What we have to do is delivered to people the best and freshest most relevant information possible. We think of Twitter as it’s not a social network, but it’s an information network. It tells people what they care about as it is happening in the world.
- Evan Williams

i believe that just like any other social network/blogging service twitter plays an essential role in connecting the world we live in and improve the rights and freedom of speech for the individual

en example of this is feature in an article from CNN.com Student ‘Twitters’ his way out of Egyptian jail where an American citizens was arrested while covering an anti-government demonstration in Mahalla, Egypt, while being transported to prison he tweeted “arrested” with in a few seconds his friends both in the USA and Egypt was aware of that something had happened to him with the help from his friends he was able to get out again

Wearing a Princess Dress

While doing my morning ritual surfing around on Danish newspaper’s websites i found theses articles “Mor med prinsessekjole smidt ud af Disneyland”(mom in princess dress thrown out of disneyland) and “Prinsessekjoler forbudt i Disneyland”(princessgowns prohibited in disneyland). they are both about Disney parks rules regarding guest arriving at the park dressed in princess or other realistic Disney park costume

a mother and child traveled from England to Disneyland, but when trying to enter the parks both dressed as princesses they were turned away and had to go back to their hotel and change, the mother now demands an apology from the Disney company even although the costume rule is written down along side other prohibited items at the entrance to the parks items like alcohol and firearms

 

Adult costumes or clothing that can be viewed as a costume (children under age 10 are excluded)

from my own experience working in Disney, i have seen this rule being enforced as i once saw a 100% realistic store trooper(star wars) walking around in fantastyland and writing autographs but as the Disney rule is characters are only allowed to walk around in areas that they belong to.

as a the storm trooper did not in any way belonged in fantasy land he was approached by park security and as he was a guest how had dressed up after entering the park he was escorted out of the park by security

the main problem for Disney is that guest in Disney park costumes can often not be identified if they steal or in any other way do things while in costume that can be morally questionable

other guest would perceive the guest dressed in a costume as a real Disney employee hence making Disney responsible for the guest actions

is personally see this rule as a reasonable rule
