RILE # 3

I have come to the conclusion that Twitter is not for me.

I check instagram every day, at least. I'm on my Facebook 24/7. And I can't forget my daily dose of pinterest. But twitter however has remained an social media completely untouched.

I had those two goals two week ago. And Im sorry to report that neither goal was accomplished. I just do not like twitter.

So. Because it is our assignment to continuously post about a form of technology that we are trying out, and because I have decided Twitter and I do not get along, I've decided to change it up.

Instead of tweeting and following people on twitter, I'm going to delete my account. BUT. To continue with this assignment I am going to be researching how teachers all over the world use Twitter successfully. Maybe this will inspire other readers to try it out for themselves? (Since I have completely failed at that.
