Twitterbater 

A person who has a Twitter account they regularly update and that no one beyond themselves reads. Aware of the lack of traffic, they keep at it, seemingly Twittering only for their own self-gratification or to make themselves feel more important/special.

live twittering 

In real life when you randomly yell out what you're doing at the moment so that everyone can hear you. This normally makes you look insane.
Examples of live twittering...

Coming out of the movie theater shouting: "JUST GOT DONE SEEING THE NEW TRANSFORMERS MOVIE, SHIT SUCKED."

At the mall shouting: "AT THE MALL RIGHT NOW SHOPPING FOR CLOTHES."

At the hospital yelling: "JUST GOT DONE GETTING A PROSTATE EXAM, SHIT WAS SO CASH."

twitterpaign 

A campaign nearly completely conceived of, and orchestrated on, twitter. A twitterpaign will contain a hash-tag (#) next to key words to influence twitter trends. Twitterpaigns ask followers to do something: retweet, blog, email, online petition or voting.
Currently, a number of celebrities are asking followers to vote for them for the People's Choice Awards. Example tweet: "Did everyone vote today for @NathanFillion (moi) #peopleschoice"

Twitterpaigns can be retaliatory. Comments made by a Marie Claire blogger about the "fatties" on the CBS show "Mike & Molly" provoked a twitterpaign. The blogger's twitter page was "blasted", tweets called for blogger's firing & requested followers retweet.
