I joined Twitter on February 25, 2009. At first I didn't understand what I was doing or how it would help me grow my PLN (personal learning network). So I started doing some research on how teachers use Twitter. I slowly began to follow others (mostly educators), and posted an occasional "tweet". I attended several Classroom 2.0 Live sessions (online and so cool) on Saturday mornings and was asked for my Twitter name. All of a sudden I started getting followers. I downloaded Tweetdeck, a Twitter client, that notifies me when someone I follow posts a tweet. And I was part of the "Twitter Nation". In less than two months I have discovered how valuable this tool is for me to continue my lifelong learning and better myself as an educator.
