Twitter is an online service you can use to send out short (140 characters or less) notes to the world via the Web, IM and text-messaging.

("Following" is Twitterspeak for signing up to receive somebody's "tweets," which is what the individual updates are, adorably, called.

Located on the third floor of the Grand Indonesia mall, the hip craft store, art gallery and café-restaurant has quickly become the default place to which expats send out-of-town visitors in search of souvenirs.
