Nov 2 - Twitter - discover

Yep, I skipped Explore and have gone straight for Discover (I'll get back to 'explore' a little later).
1. have had a Twitter account for a while - but it was fun to update my profile settings and change a few details about myself and also the background (bit of a theme at the moment). Oh yeah, I added my blog url in too.
2. agree that tweeting at 140 words or less can be a challenge but have found I can overcome the challenge by breaking down what I want to say into short chunks and do a couple of posts all at once. I enjoy the challenge of being concise though and admit to being a non-abbreviating poster too - perhaps once I started abbreviating I'll find it easier
3. now following a few people - Chrystie Hill, Ellen, ALIA, etc.
4. used the '#nswlearning2.1" tag into a post but noted that Twitter didn't seem to like the dot between the 2 and the 1 - I can search for the full tag but it doesn't hyperlink well from within the post itself - something to remember for future tweet tagging
5. linked my flickr account to Twitter - connectivity plus!

may go and explore now
