Twitter

I must admit that I did end up wandering around in circles a little with this Twitter challenge.  I've started following both LILAC 2013 and CILIP InfoLit Group in response to the conference challenge. Asked to blog about three Twitter accounts I have begun to follow, I'm afraid clarity is still eluding me a little. I must admit to liking my information clean and clear and crisp and I do find Twitter a little trying when one ends up wading through never ending Tweets which make absolutely no sense whatsoever unless you have been following the conversation.  So, a little frustrated with this. I don't feel that I have followed any twitter feeds intently enough to be able to make any sound professional recommendations, but accounts of interest so far would probably be World Book Night (for philanthropic joy), CILIP (as it ticks a box), and Ned Potter (aka thewikiman for Web 2.0 relevance). Any recommendations from others as to how to get more out of Twitter (professionally) would be very welcome!
 

 

Twitter

I took the opportunity today to log in and spring clean my somewhat dormant professional Twitter account.  I initially created the account simply to enable me to access Pinterest, which required either a Twitter or Facebook account to join. My interest in Pinterest was in order to use it to collate and share research into different furniture options for the LRC's refurb. 

Ironically, while the professional Twitter account (with my full name) has remained unused till now, it did prompt me to create an anonymous personal account at the same time, which I have been using on a fairly regular basis ever since, to explore and share my personal faith.  It will be interesting to see whether, as a result of 23 Things, my professional Twitter account now becomes more active too.
