Twitter Turns 8 Today: Check out Some of The Housewives First Tweets

 

Happy 8th Birthday, Twitter!

 

Ever since it launched in 2006, the microblogging site has completely changed how humans communicate—140-characters at a time.

Twitter has also become the go-to digital soapbox for our beloved Housewives. Over the years, they’ve used it to communicate with their fans, get the word out about their brands (Fabellini! She By Sheree! Kyle By Aylene Too!) and, naturally, perpetuate ongoing feuds with their co-stars.

It took a minute for our housewives to get the hang of things but their pro’s now. And in honor of Twitter’s big day, below are a few of the popular housewives #FirstTweets and #hashtags:
