tweet-elite 

A member of the new class of modern social networking intelligentsia who have evolved beyond the banal use of unsubstantial social networking platforms (i.e. Facebook) and have acheived higher meaning through the exclusive use of Twitter to ostensibly contribute to the global Zeitgeist.
Greg: Hey, I sent you a message on Facebook and tagged you in that cool pic from our epic Vegas trip but haven't heard back from you.

Beluga: I've long since tired of the voyeurism and accesibility of Facebook. Follow me @BelugaDRat where our collective conversation has really elevated the social consciousness.
Greg: My god, you've become a tweet-elite!

tweet spot 

a tweet that reaches new levels of likes and retweets
Did you see my latest tweet? It had over 2 likes. I hit that tweet spot real good.

tweet with the face space

to indicate that one is not up on current trends by referencing (in an odd way) the names of social networking sites that you really have no experience with
So, I called Jeremy, but he was tweeting with the face space, so I told him I'd call him back later, since I didn't want to interfere with his newfangled electronic masturbation machine.

Cindy told me she was trying to contact me all day. When I told her I don't tweet with the face space, she laughed with understanding, and said she'd ring later. I told her "two longs, one short". She didn't get it.

Tweet Skank

Usually a female Tweeter who creates a Twitter account for the purpose of spamming other Tweeters with self-promotion of her physical assets. Generally includes a pornographic profile picture and a "browse my pix" link to more porn. May or may not be an actual person.
Tweeter1: "I received five Tweet skanks this week, how many did you get?"

Tweeter2: "I got three and one of them infected my machine when I followed the link -- LenaYuck69, who posted, 'Im lonely cn u help me? check my pics'."

Tweeter1: "Fool. You block Tweet skanks, you don't follow them or their links!"

Tweet on the Streets 

A term used to tell someone of a rumour or to pass on information, but without wanting to be identified as the source of such rumour or information. Like "Word on the Streets", but used mostly when your source of information is a social networking platform. However, can also be used otherwise as an alternative to "Word on the Streets". Relevant in today's fast moving, all pervading and progressive digital era.
Male X: Yo, did you hear the news about that hottie you were trying to get with forever?
Male Y: No, what's up?
Male X: Tweet on the streets is that she's getting married to that boy with the thorn in his side.
Male Y: That's messed up, man.

tweet SCREAM 

The use of ALL CAP letters as a written social-media equivalent to actual verbal shouting, screaming or ranting
