Microblogging is a broadcast medium in the form of blogging.A microblog differs from a traditional blog in that its content is typically much smaller,in both actual size and aggregate file size.Microblogs“allow users to exchange small elements of content such as short sentences,individual images,or video links”. As with traditional blogging,microbloggers post about topics ranging from the simple,such as"what I'm doing right now,"to the thematic(主题的),such as"sports cars.”Commercial microblogs also exist,to promote(促进)websites,services and/or products,and to promote collaboration within an organization.
