President Obama finally has his own Twitter account, @POTUS. On Monday morning he tweeted, "Hello Twitter! It's Barack. Really! Six years in they're finally giving me my own account."

 

Minutes later, the account had thousands of followers, favorites and retweets and was confirmed by the White House Twitter account in a tweet that read, "BREAKING: President Obama just launched @POTUS with a tweet from the Oval Office. It's really him! #WelcomeToTwitter."

 

For further proof, the White House tweeted a video of Obama sending his tweet.

 

About an hour-and-half-later, Michelle Obama ribbed her husband from her @FLOTUS account with the tweet, "It's about time, @POTUS!"

 

Even former president Bill Clinton got in on the action with a tweet and an interesting query, tweeting, "Welcome to @Twitter, @POTUS! One question: Does that username stay with the office? #askingforafriend.

 

*  Should politicians waste their time on social media?

*  Twitter and Facebook offer great platforms for politicians to communicate directly with the people.

*  At the end of his term, will Obama have to give up that Twitter account along with the White House?
