By Franck Ernewein, Tweetping is a map that shows where everyone in the whole world is tweeting from in real time.
Much like Poptip’s treatment of Twitter, you’re not really meant to follow it all. Country-by-country tickers do track the total tweets, words, and characters sent since you signed on, but hashtags and @-mentions flash for milliseconds, constantly replaced by a stream of data that can’t be paused for a moment, lest the system fall perpetually behind. Meanwhile, the geolocations of each tweet make their way to a world map as a glowing dot. As the tweets pile up, so do the dots, meaning the world transforms from prehistoric shadows to blindingly bright connectivity in a matter of minutes. Via Lauren Moss, Jack Patterson

Ever wonder what it would look like to plot every single geotagged tweet since 2009 on a map? Twitter has done just that.
Twitter posted these maps of Europe, New York City, Tokyo and Istanbul on its blog Friday. They use billions of geotagged tweets: Every dot represents a tweet, with the brighter colors showing a higher concentration of tweets. It's pretty amazing how the mapped-out tweets clearly match with population centers, highways and the like — though perhaps that's obvious. Via Lauren Moss, Neil Ferree

Unit 1 Nature and Perspectives of Geography. This is a map of all of the geotagged twitter posts from 2009 to now in the United States. Its shows population distribution and points of interest that people like to travel to. It shows dense population centers and highways. You can see the roads in the map because of space in the map not covered. The brighter colors are in higher population and more popular travel destinations. This is a map of many types. This map is a part of unit 1 because it is a map of a basic geographic concept. This map is a functional map of sorts because it shows points of travel that people go to, but it is not varied by distance so it is not a precise version. This map is a definite example of a thematic map because it shows the story of the travel destinations of five years of their lives.

Great post by Kim Garst, Twitter can be a very powerful tool to build your business if you use it wisely.
Intro:
The purpose of Twitter and all social media, is not to make money, but to brand YOU and your business and build relationships with potential and existing customers. The money will follow if you put your customers FIRST.
**Mix your "business" talk with "life" talk
Excerpt::
"Twitter challenges personal brands to reach out to their audience differently than they would in traditional marketing and/or social media platforms."
Here are some highlights that caught my attention:
**The resource sharing tweet - Find a great article or a resource that you know your target audience could benefit from
**The quotable tweet - This one speaks for itself
**Tip of the Day Tweet - great way to provide relevant content to your target audience by providing them a valuable piece of info that they can use either personally or profesionally. This also builds vlaue for you as an expert within your niche.

This remains true today. We still firmly believe that social media is changing not only the news but fundamentally how media works everywhere, and we've seen this reflected in the stories that more than 850,000 Storify users have created so far.
