Twitter is like the social web’s circulatory system — it delivers links, memes, breaking news, and conversation to many parts of the web. Unlike Facebook, Twitter is promiscuous — it shares outside of its own platform easily and happily.
It is also a tool that many information workers find useful, including journalists.
I’d also like to use it as a way for us to communicate with one another. We can, of course, also use this website.
To Get Your Checkmark
To get your checkmark for this session you must:
- sign up with Twitter
- write a bio for it
- find people to follow (10 minimum).
- create one list of news sources/feeds for a topic of your interest.
If you already have a Twitter account, and you’ve done all these things, you’ve accomplished this!
