Written by Ron Callari<\/a><\/p>\n In Twitter’s short 3-year lifespan, the rapid-growing microblogging platform has spawned over 6 million followers who not only blog in 140 characters or less, but have also penned and performed songs in its honor. <\/p>\n In addition to being a staple for rapid-fire communication amongst technophiles and a merchandising tool for tech-savvy companies, Twitter has inspired would-be songwriters to write music and pen lyrics about the obsession that has swept the nation. And while celebrities like Ashton Kutcher<\/a>, Demi Moore<\/a> and Jane Fonda<\/a> have graced our presence in Twitter-ville, the real celebs are the those “unsung heroes” who are now singing their hearts out on YouTube. It’s high time to acknowledge and give props to their bravery and musicality. <\/p>\n “first-time-ever” Top Ten Twitter Songs of All Time. <\/p>\n So in true David Letterman<\/a>‘s top-ten list style, this year’s 10th place award goes to Alana Taylor<\/strong><\/a>, a 20-yr old native of New York City, attending NYU who is a true troubadour-ess, lauding the praises of Twitter to the discredit of Facebook, because after all “140 characters are all you need to say.” While she knows there are now a lot of Twitter songs on YouTube, she claims that she was the first to write a tribute song to Twitter, posting her’s as early as March, 2008. Alana blogs for Mashable.com<\/a>, PBS.org<\/a> and her own at alanataylor.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
