What is Geotagging?
Twitter's Geotagging feature allows users who opt-in to the service to selectively Geotag their tweets with their exact location and provide more context to users about their surroundings. This great new functionality allows you to join into a local conversation and annotate the world around you as you travel from one place to another.
It is important to note that this functionality is off by default. You will need to explicitly opt-in to use the functionality. Once you have done that, any app that you use will be able to Geotag your tweet with your exact location. We require application developers to be upfront and obvious about when they are Geotagging an update. If you ever find that an application is doing it without notifying you, please let us know.

What Twitter Is - Getting to know Twitter
Welcome to the world of Twitter, a micro-blogging or status update platform.
What is it?
Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent messages. People write short updates, often called "tweets". Your updates may only be up to 140 characters or fewer. These messages are posted to your profile or your blog, sent to your followers, and are searchable on Twitter search. When you write a new blogpost, article, or squidoo lens, create a new video or just about anything else, be sure to post the link on Twitter. People will see your tweets or twits (a tweet or twit is an update) and they may click the link you are posting about.
