Twitter is the spot for creeping on famous people, and don’t say you don’t do it.
The social media network turns seven years old today (Happy Birthday Twitter!) and we’ve already looked at how the world has changed in those seven years, all because of a little blue bird. #tweettweet

Don’t get us wrong, we know there are more geniuses who entertain us with their less-than-140-character messages… and feel free to share your favourites.
