Twitter was something I had always wondered about but didn't know a single thing about so I stayed away from it. After watching the various YouTube videos regarding the purpose of Twitter as well as how Twitter works I felt inclined to explore my newly created Twitter account.
After playing a bit I felt much more comfortable with this form of social media. I now see how Twitter can be critical when developing one's PLN. Gaining followers on Twitter is definitely a give and take relationship which can be extremely beneficial to both parties. I'm excited to continue working with Twitter. Stay tuned for that adventure.
