Social Networking

This is about the shift in the way we are connecting. Things are changing quickly. I stumbled across this chat about an hour after it happened. Some edcentre.ca folks will recognize the presenter, and maybe recognize the voice of the other teacher in the room.
Are our relationships and the way we connect changing through social networks? How can we use social networks to learn and grow? What cautions are important to remember about relationships through social networks? What are the values in connecting through social networks?

What is the twitter all about?

I just read a Blog post titled, 10 Things Teachers Should Know to Get Started with Twitter . Even if you are not a busy teacher trying a keep your life balanced, this is a pretty good introduction to how Twitter might be used.
It would be interesting to know how many edcentre.ca students are using Twitter. Please post a comment if you use Twitter and let us know how you are using it.
