How Do I Post Photos to Twitter?

Social networking has gone to the birds. Celebrities, politicians and everyday people are tweeting on a daily basis. Twitter continues to grow in popularity, and posts to this popular online networking site come from anyone, anywhere. You can use Twitter to promote your band or just tell the world what is on your mind. No matter what you type, you are limited to 160-character entries, but posting a picture can sometimes speak 1,000 words. It is easy to do and totally free using Twitter's photo site, Twitpic.
