Twitter Thread

What is a Twitter Thread?

A Twitter thread is a series of connected tweets, forming a longer narrative or discussion than a single 280-character tweet allows. Users create threads by posting a tweet and then replying to it with subsequent tweets. This creates a chronological sequence of tweets, visible as a continuous story on a user’s profile. Twitter threads are commonly used for storytelling, tutorials, opinion pieces, news updates, and in-depth explanations of complex topics. Using threads allows for more nuanced conversation and richer content delivery. For example, a journalist might use a thread to detail the events of a breaking news story, while a programmer might use one to explain a complex coding concept.
