DEEP DIVE
#WhyIJoinedTwitter is a trending hashtag in which people explain why they joined Twitter. Tweets include serious reasons and lighthearted jokes about the platform.
Unlike Instagram, on Twitter people engage with you (i.e like or retweet) not necessarily on the bases of your appearance or ‘outward beauty’, but instead they engage with your THOUGHTS, your ‘inner ‘beauty’ and your mind…and I love that about Twitter ❤️#WhyIJoinedTwitter
