Twitter Chat

I participated in my first twitter chat on Tuesday night (2/19/13). This was the first ever teacher librarian chat (#tlelem) and I was so happy to be a part of it. Initially, I was so overwhelmed by how fast everything was coming in. However, another tweeted and said if I was using TweetChat (which I was) that I could pause it and catch up with some of the readings. What a great idea! This definitely helped me follow along!! The main discussion was “Web 2.0 and research projects in the library, what are some things you have done?”  There were so many wonderful ideas that I had to put some as my favorites so I wouldn’t forget any. There was a lot of talk about Pebble Go so that is definitely a resource worth checking out.  There was also a discussion regarding current books. One thing in particular that I enjoyed was the interaction between people and the amount of information that was shared. I  liked that all the tweets are archived and if anything was missed we could go to a specific site and review them. I will be there later - ha! I am following so many participants from last night. They all had such wonderful ideas and resources for librarians. This was a great experience and I will definitely do it again in the future.
