Twitter, pour construire son réseau (4/5) Twitter est un outil relationnel au fonctionnement unique qui crée une nouvelle proximité entre ses usagers. Celle-ci se situe a mi-chemin entre le chat et l’e-mail. Mais il y a quelques subtilités rituelles… Sur Twitter tout le monde lit mais la plupart du temps, personne ne se répond.
