Thing #18

This was one of the easier blogs since, I already have a twitter and facebook account. I have been on facebook since about 2004. I recently became a member on twitter so, I am still adjusting to it. I feel that it is important for educators to become a part of these social networks, because technology is taking over and teachers can keep up with what is going on by being part of some type of online community. One new insight that I encountered on twitter was being able to follow famous people everywhere. This makes you feel like you know these people personally. On facebook, I like that your page can be set as private along with your pictures so, strangers are unable to access your information. The thing I dislike about twitter is that it is not that simple to find particular things and accessing things from different tweets. I would have to say facebook had the most useful features, because twitter is just all over the place. Yes, there were a couple of kindergarten groups that I decided to follow on twitter.
