Twitter is a very fast way of interacting with others, and it is definitely faster than the Blackboard/on line discussion. Twitter is fun as compared to boring blackboard. The bad things about tweets are the limited character space for each tweet. You have to keep your tweet nice and short. On blackboard you can right paragraphs. I think that’s very boring because no one likes to read long messages. Tweets are interesting to read and also fun to comment on other peoples tweets. Blackboard is more formal that twitter. Although I am not a tweeter, I think it would be fun once I get started. I think twitter is great for your personal life but not for class discussions. I don’t think it’s appropriate to tweet to your professor if you have a serious question. I feel like new media is going to take over and soon we will have all our classes on Skype or msn messenger.
