]]> Comment on I am not a fan of Twitter or Plurk. I have found very little useful information. I am still trying to find my friends and figure out the best way to search. I feel like my efforts have been a waste of time. by wchmontondo http://williamsonconnects.edublogs.org/2009/11/03/i-am-not-a-fan-of-twitter-or-plurk-i-have-found-very-little-useful-information-i-am-still-trying-to-find-my-friends-and-figure-out-the-best-way-to-search-i-feel-like-my-efforts-have-been-a-waste/comment-page-1/#comment-169 wchmontondo Fri, 06 Nov 2009 03:11:57 +0000 http://williamsonconnects.edublogs.org/?p=251#comment-169 I felt the same way in the beginning. I now love Plurk. It took some time but now I have a nice network of people with different backgrounds. I enjoy communicating with them. Let me know if I can help you.

I'm still thinking of some way to use technology for my first grade math students. I think your students are really going to benefit from this experience.

I think that's a great idea Kevin. I think I'm going to try it with this class and thought if it works I will branch out more. I will share the highs and lows. Good luck with your blogging as well.

On Twitter I starting following Will Richardson and some other people who were big names in the tech world-Jamie included of course! That helped. I also did some searches on diigo and delicious which led me to other interesting people. I am so impressed with the world of technology and what it can do.

I work in Fairport and help facilitate the District's Technology Vision Team, which is much like your group. Feel free to check out our blog (http://tvt.blog.fairport.org) as some of the same concerns and conversations you all are having are also happening on the tvt blog. Lisa - Check out this blog (http://lifeskills.blog.fairport.org/). The blog is for our LINKS/ADEPT classes, all special needs students. They have really taken off with blogging and by the end of the year they do most of the writing work on the blog. If you have any questions or want to try to connect with the teacher let my mom know (Joanne Scheib) and she can show you the teacher's website.
