Task 9-Twitter

I just checked out twitter for the first time. At first I didn't get it, but the article below helped me. How can libraries use it? Well...the technology does allow for quiet conversations... Interesting to see if it will be just another fad. I just added a link to by blog so you can see my most recent twitter updates. Update-I just thought of a way to use twitter in my daily work. When I am not at my desk (I might be working in another department, in a meeting, at lunch, etc.), I can update twitter leaving a message saying where I can be found, then refresh my Blog page. If anyone needs to know if I am at my desk, they can just look at my blog to know my whereabouts. Update-I just got my first follower. I don't know whether to block him or not... Update-I just figured out how to block a follower using "Help" on twitter. It was not hard at all. Update-I tried to follow someone who was following me. Too bad I don't know Italian...
