Week 7: Microblogging

I am now on Twitter! I started my Twitter account last year after attending the spring MACE conference but then didn't do much with it. Now I have people to follow, some accounts coming to me through RSS feeds, and it looks much more promising as far as my using it goes.

Currently I am following various librarians from the 23 Things Kansas website, Hall Davidson - he was one of the presenters at the spring MACE conference, and he describes himself as a hopeless ed tech geek since '73, and Elizabeth Kohut - she is a SMART certified trainer and Discovery Educator (she even does training on how to use Twitter!)

I am finding their posts helpful because they give me tech ideas. I am hoping that Tweeting with the 23 Things Kansas librarians will be helpful too. As far as uses for Twitter go, right now I see it as a way to connect with other educators worldwide. I hope to use it for personal reasons in the near future!!
