In less than 12 hours after he officially entered ‘Twittersphere’, US President Barack Obama’s account has attracted 1.46 million followers.
The President of the United States Barack Obama -- or @POTUS -- account will allow Obama to communicate directly for the first time.
He follows 65 people, surprisingly none of them are foreign leaders.
“Hello, Twitter! It’s Barack. Really! Six years <g data-gr-id="15">in,</g> they’re finally giving me my own account,” was Obama’s first message on the <g data-gr-id="17">micro blogging</g> site on Monday.
Four hours later he made his second tweet about his visit to New Jersey. “In Camden today, seeing first-hand how smart policing is making the community safer while building trust,” he tweeted.
