Using Twitter as an Educator

I think Twitter is very useful to an educator. I have a personal Twitter account that I've been using for about a year and a half. Here are some things I do and don't like about Twitter.

Likes:
- As an future teacher, you can really connect with other teachers.
-You can learn about news sites and new information simply by logging on and seeing what people have posted.
- It gives you a great place to ask for advice or responses to your questions as an educator.


Dislikes:
- I do not have unlimited internet access whenever I want it, wherever I want it. This makes it hard to keep up on Twitter.
- I do not always like being constantly connected to the Internet and reading what people are saying on Twitter. I don't like the idea of having to post something regularly just for other people.
- It is not a habit of mine to log into Twitter like I do with Facebook. So I can easily forget about Twitter for days (or even weeks) before remembering to check my Twitter.
