Twitter Week 1
OK, I decided to give twitter another go, now that I know some people that use it (and use it regularly). You can follow me @dietsociety. I did sign up for it a year or so ago - I'm not sure the initial reason why - maybe to investigate the usefulness of it (or even what it was).
I've found that lots of edutech people use twitter - I'm getting the sense that it's as a microblog type deal. It's also being used by a lot of businesses that I frequent for records or Japanese ephemera or marketing that seems to update their brand, I mean, product lists with new products. I'll keep it up for a month or two - tweeting about what I'm doing at work mostly, and see how I feel about it. It certainly seems to be a little more useful than a year ago where I logged in and couldn't find anyone interesting to follow (that doesn't mean that they weren't there, I didn't necessarily know about them yet).
