Tapping the expertise of my network

Facebook is fun too.

twitter for library alerts

http://twitter.com/mrrl

Twitter is like….

… a celestial bulletin board … passing notes during class … being in a room with your "friends", saying

something really loud, and hoping that someone hears you

… a party in my phone … a bus full of crazy people talking to

themselves. Except you get to choose who is on the bus

Twitter is instant gratification!
