Summary/Abstract: The Macedonian Tweeter-sphere & tweet production is enough diverse and dynamic that it is possible to make a theory of tweet as a new short/small digital forms of popular culture and literature (E-graffiti). The dominant function of the tweets is rhetorical (pragmatic, persuasive), but some tweets are marked by the aesthetic function. That’s why, there is a sense to combine the rhetorical with poetic approach of the tweet. All illustrative examples are taken from the new Macedonian tweet production mostly in order to make a thematic classification of the tweets.
