Why tweet?

Seriously, why “Tweet”? 1

If I had never known about Twitter and were asked to start a company exactly like it, I would have called it “Bleeter” instead.  Anything you said in 140 characters would be a “Bleet.”  And, best of all, the phrase “Follow me” would just make SO much more sense when you’re talking about sheep.
