I am enjoying learning about Twitter! My kids can't believe that my homework is learning about how to tweet and how to follow people on Twitter. I signed up for a Twitter several years ago, but I never used it or even really wanted to. I felt like it was like Facebook which I really have a hard time with. Sometimes I take weeks off from Facebook because I feel like it is a waste of time.
I was really excited to hear from Julie Smith about Twitter. She made me look at it from a different perspective. I love how she said "lurk," which is something I am very good at doing. I have a really hard time posting to Facebook and Instagram, but I like to look or "lurk." Most of the time, like I said, it feels like such a waste of time. I really like that Julie said that "if Twitter is boring, you are following the wrong people." This got me really interested in finding people that I would like to follow and getting in on conversations that are important to me. I still feel a bit intimidated by Twitter but I can say that I am excited about what I have learned so far.
Hi Stephanie!
ReplyDeleteTwitter has never been my go to for social media and connecting with people. I had signed up many years ago as well and didn't have a clear understanding of what the big deal was. It was fun for me to log on and get accustomed to what exactly it was.
