Twitter is proving to be more and more competitive in the social network arena as an investor frenzy quickly sent shares surging after the public share offering. Additional options and functionality allowing the creation and distribution of more content on Twitter has paid off, attracting more users to make use of the popular social network’s services. More users attract more partners, investors and advertisers…I think you get the gist. Twitter is a hot commodity with the demand for stock exceeded the supply.
