Kanye West Joins Twitter, Doesn't Use Caps Lock or Spell Check

Better late than never. Kanye West joined Twitter on Wednesday – and so far, it hasn't exactly been smooth sailing for the outspoken musician.

"Up early in the morning taking meetings in Silicone Valley," the rapper Tweeted, before noticing his spelling error.

"Lol I spelled Silicon wrong ( I guess I was still thinking about the other type of silicone ITS A PROCESS!! : )," he wrote.

Apart from his spelling error, what's biggest surprise about West's Tweets? They're not in caps lock, his preferred method of writing on his blog. No word yet if he plans on hijacking Britney Spears's Twitter – the most-followed account on the site – to announce that his is the "best Twitter of all time."
