Twitter Reflection March 2, 2008

I’ve only posted on Twitter for a short time, but I’m already struck by two items.  One, it is incredibly easy to add new people to follow by selecting them from another person’s Twitter feed.  Secondly, Twitter, as a social network, is incredibly fast.  I added about two dozen new people to follow, and within minutes, a couple of them had added my feed to their list.  That caught me by surprise.  I’m sure there are more surprises ahead, and I’ll let you know what they are as I find them.

I have gained so much from networking on twitter. I have been able to ask a question and someone out there in twitterverse is able to answer it. I don’t know what I did before twitter (and I’ve only been on it about a month and a half.

I didn’t know about tagging in twitter, but tagging will make it easier to organize and get the most out of twittering. Thanks!
