Twitpics- Keep or Obliterate?

For me, personally, I love the idea of Twitpics! I think that they are a fantastic invention of the “Twitterworld.”  I’ve added quite a number of twitpics to my Twitter account over the past few weeks because to me, a picture is worth a thousand words. and that is 860 more words than allotted on Twitter. So it is more beneficial to all involved. =]

Twitpics tend to be able to show the individuals “following us” rather than us just coming straight out and saying exactly what is on my mind.  Instead I can send a series of pictures to ensure that my point comes across to all of the readers out there.  Twitpics, to me, just seem to be a more beneifical way of allowing our readers to grasp the concepts we want them to, instead of having to adhere to the 140 character limit that Twitter has us blocked on.

Following Doug Covey

Throughout the last few weeks in the semester, I have been given the opportunity to follow, on Twitter, Doug Covey.  He is the CEO of Blueprint Education, a non-profit organization.  Most of the tweets he has produced within the last few weeks are specifically geared toward Education and the development of it through the weeks.  He focuses mainly on Technology with children or at least he has for the past few weeks.  He has said that “technology in the hands of children makes them better writers”.
