These days some uncommon English words have become commonly common. Take for example McDonald’s recent infamous tag “I’m lovin’ it” which is literary and grammatically questionable, has somehow became an endearing term for their burger lovers. Twitter has crept into the English Dictionary in less than a year. Maybe not quite into the orthodox dictionaries, but definitely in the internet usage of English language.
Barack Obama used it, CNN’s Rick Sanchez has it, Britney Spears can’t go without it. Such is the influence of twitter that hackers have their thrill hacking into some high profile twitters and posted sensitive issues or spread malicious tweets. Obama’s twitter account, which was left unused since Nov, also falls victim to hacker who posted a survey promoting a survey on the President.
