Twitter has surprised me!

    I must admit to being the type of person who is somewhat skeptical of new tools.  I am the type of person who prefers to move, and choosing to work at my computer versus gardening or even cleaning doesn't appeal to me in my personal time.   So I really wasn't sure how I was going to feel about Tweeting.  Having several friend on Facebook who post, "am cooking dinner",  "am eating dinner", "am cleaning up from dinner.".....I just thought I would be uninterested.  But, I must admit using Twitter as a personal learning network is very effective.  I have been following freetech4teachers mostly, and I find his posts very informative and succinct.  A recent post on his site about 'Read it Later' is definitely a tool I could see myself using!  Surprise!

  1. I agree with you Terry. I am finding that I am using Twitter more for a professional reason rather than personal reason. I have found some great things within the few weeks since our last class. It is great!

  3. I totally agree Terry! Would you be willing to share the link to the Read it later? I did not see that post! I would like to check it out now that I know you will use it. Thanks! Look at how our social network is growing!
