The Moss-Free Stone

Why should you be using Twitter? Here are a few of the resources, stories, lessons, etc. that I picked up off my Tweets so far this morning:

• Distance Learning with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Thanks to Room214)
• How to Create a Hackintosh out of a PC (Thanks to Courosa)
• A thought-provoking essay on national schools (Thanks to Timlauer)
• 10-year old makes his own snow (Thanks to Injenuity)
• A better way to run a conference? (Thanks to Shareski)

All of this while working on updating our department website and tweaking three Internet safety presentations. Also, it should be known that I haven’t met any of these Twitter buddies in person, yet I’ve been able to learn about countless resources, ideas, events, etc. through my “relationship” with them in Twitter.  I love blogging and I can’t imagine living without RSS right now, but Twitter is, in many ways, the best of both.
