It's basically a social networking site. You post short updates to let people know what you're doing etc and it's useful if you wanna keep up to date about your favourite star etc.
It's called tweeting when you post a message, btw XDUndergrad law student. Take my advice with a pinch of salt! :rotfl:0 -

It's called "micro blogging".
Basically you write a few lines about what you're doing/planning/thinking. Other people can then comment.
Stephen Fry is rather into it:
