Assignment - Twitter

Twitter and Twibe seem like very fun things for everyone. I always hear about using them, but this is my first time. I think it takes a lot of time to do. It is a great way to communicate and to share ideas. As teachers, it is a way to stay connected and to share what is going on in our classrooms. I don't see or hear a lot of students talking about Twitter, but I see them texting or talking about texting all the time. This could be a great way to share opinions about currect events, but they must be a lot of control from the teachers. I think this is the area where using these tools can create a lot of controversy among parents and other community people. If there is no control of what the students can say or write in twitter or texting, where is the limit? I suppose bullying using twitter can be as bad as bullying using texting.
