Twitter is not like email, it is limited to 140 characters so it needs concise comments and is used by educators for PD despite some people using it to update the world on their breakfast! It is a way to find things to take away from it that are relevant to you. A tweet is the message in 140 characters or less; a twitter username is a handle, a hashtag helps sort posts into topics, if you follow then the posts made by that user come up on your newsfeed. Hootsuite and Tweetdeck are ways to manage your content. You can find a list of hashtags on http://cybraryman.com/ and you can follow these to see what your peers are sharing, you can also join online chats. This has been a great recap for me about how to use Twitter and is something I will share with my colleagues.
