Hey Katie,

Do you know anything about twitter currently? I will be working on finding out about this tool

I know some of the lingo, but pretty basic like follow and hash tag. I'll have to find out more too. Especially more about libraries using Twitter!

Hey Dove and Katie,

I signed up for a twitter account.  Do you girls have one?  Where do we go from here?.  You can reach me at daniel.irizarry@lehman.cuny.edu or dirizarry100@qc.cuny.edu or here on the wiki.

hey katie,

looks like Dove is not doing twitter with us.  Guess its just you and me.  I'm in the process of learning the basics

Okay, so I've been doing some poking. My sister let me used her account for now, because she tells me Twitter is changing their design soon. So I was thinking that I would probably want to screencap the sign-up process, but I don't want to do it on old Twitter if everyone is going to have new Twitter. If that makes sense?

But I was poking around on her account and have kind of a list of important things we should probably cover. Add anything I've forgotten!

Following/followers

Twitter feed (timeline)

Character limit

@username responses/messages

Hash tags

Link shorteners (bit.ly, ow.ly)

Retweeting

Trending topic

Direct messaging

Lists

Locked tweets

Favorites

What else do you think we should discuss? Another thing I was thinking is do you want to demonstrate these things by finding Twitter accounts that use them well or just tweet at each other or whatever?

Hey Katie

yes i think we should use twitter accounts that use these features, but i think we should also find a way to twitter each other and if possible twitter each other during the acutual presentation.  what do you think?
