The first and main microblogging.

Blogging was popular in those days, the main disadvantage was the huge amount of garbage. A sensible post or not, you won’t understand until you read it, but I really don’t want to read for this.
So the idea came to make a short message service, because brevity is the sister of talent. Hence the name MicroBlog.
It is necessary to put a person in conditions so that he briefly and concisely expresses his thought. In addition, no one bothers to put a link to the full article. If you would like to read more, please follow the link provided.

An important part was the ability to post via SMS.
There were a number of advantages: fasting was limited to the size of SMS and mobility appeared.
Thus, if an event or a natural disaster happened somewhere, or something else significant, one could get first-hand operational information.

The disadvantage was the difficulty of adding a link to the post. The link can be very long. Link shortening services came to the rescue.
When the era of mobile phones came, the need to use SMS disappeared and Twitter simply did not take into account the size of the link, only the text of the post, which was increased, was considered. Still, the SMS size is too short.
