Thing Eight: IM, Texting & Twittering

Okay, I admit it I've been behind the whole IM thing. Back at the turn of the century the high school kids outside of Rochester NY would sit 2 computers down from each other and IM about what they had for lunch. Most schools don't allow chat or IM.

I've just started texting on my phone and have to admit that I do like it and find it much more convenient. I've also had a twitter account since August and haven't really used it much, don't really understand exactly how I can best implement it. But now that I am using more and more Web 2.0 tools I am beginning to see some of the possible potential for getting quick infor out to patrons.

For this assignment I am going to beef up my twitter page and try to use that a litle more. I'm putting a photo up on my profile. BTW, my twitter account for my library is gr8library.

Wow...I'm moving along on this twitter thing. I am going to try to put it on my blog page here and later see if I can text a twitter using my cell.
