publish: true| Microblogging is a form of blogging using short posts without titles known as microposts. Microblogs "allow users to exchange small elements of content such as short sentences, individual images, or video links", which may be the major reason for their popularity. Some popular social networks such as Twitter, Mastodon, Tumblr, Koo, and Instagram can be viewed as collections of microblogs. | |

| wikipedia:: Microblogging |
a quick and dirty stream of consciousness
as simple as just a link with no context
status updates, like statuslog
Manton Reece, founder of Micro.blog, defines Microblogging thus:
A microblog post should have these qualities:
Should have a feed, usually RSS or JSON Feed
Does not have an RSS item title.
Contains short post text, usually 280 characters or less.
Sites like Facebook and LinkedIn have something like status updates that are similar to/essentially microblogging
