Activity #6 - Twitter Reflection
I am not sure a live tweet session would be something I'd be interested in. I think it would be very hard to follow, and I'd rather be part of a full conversation than one via twitter; I think that even a chat room or a video chat would be more my speed. However, I think it is an interesting concept, and I believe our students would really be into this type of communicating and collaborating. I followed a wide range--from famous people who I think it would be fun to see what they say to news sources to entertainment news, to some of my friend who tweet. It was neat to see who all has twitter feeds, I think it is very cool to get the news updates so quickly and concisely I like the brevity of twitter for these quick updates! I have not yet picked up any followers, we'll see if I do as I continue to explore. I honestly don't think I have anything that interesting to say! I liked the titter glossary; I now really do understand what someone says when they say "hashtag. . . " That feels good!

Twitter takes some easing in to. Check my comments on Staci's blog about this topic.
ReplyDeleteSome people live on twitter, some dabble. I'd say I'm on twitter about once or twice a week outside of a twitter chat, workshop or conference. I don't live there, but I do learn there.
Having some trouble sorting through Twitter; I can't figure out how to eliminate the tweets I don't want to see in my feed (if that is the right word). But I have to say, it's much more fun to read the tweets than I expected! Have to keep investigating how to learn more there aside from the news feeds. Thanks for the encouragement!
ReplyDeleteThe tweets in your feed come from people you follow, the search you are using or the hashtag you are viewing. I don't think you can eliminate them.
ReplyDeleteThe news updates sounds like something I should try. Several people have commented on that. I agree about worrying if I have something to say, so I have been just a twitter reader for the most part!
