Twitter

Published August 21, 2007 Bob Sprankle , Chris Craft , Twitter , Wes Fryer

Today Bob Sprankle (guest blogger on Wes Fryer’s Moving at the Speed of Creativity) wrote about his 30 days of Twitter and how he gets it and is a transformed person because of it. Bob, I’m right there with ya!! I have decided that Twitter can be really informative and downright fun!! I have used it to preview blog posts–some of the folks I follow post a URL to twitter long before it hits my aggregator–its almost like getting a sneak peak. I got to see Will Richardson dance! I get tipped off to fabulous global projects, like Chris Craft’s “Life ‘Round Here” digital storytelling project. I can get sports updates from golf, baseball, football, soccer, racing, and just about anything else. It’s a cross b/w professional conversations and gabbing on the phone about anything. I’m totally hooked on Twitter. If you like Twitter, follow me at “Cathyjo.” I only hope some of my contributions are as meaty as the pros I’m following.

I agree with you Cathy, Twitter is great. Thanks for adding me to your contacts, which brought me right here to your blog (now properly RSS-ed).
I’d like to share with you a couple of links:
- a wiki I created to “collect” valuable uses Twitter (there are so many!). I was inspired by so much chatcasting experience, thus the name:

-I believe the idea is to thoroughly think about tools before letting enthusiasm manage our classroom practice, so I wrote this post about Twitter:

Thank you again and nice meeting you -virtually!
