Week 3 - Twitter

Well I've heard a lot of hype about Twitter and to be honest, it wasn't that great lol, don't hunt me down Tosca.

It's very easy to use, customer's should find it easy to use. It could definitely be used in both the learn.nets and workrooms. If I wanted to find out what any of my family were doing, I would pick up the phone or simply invite myself over to their homes. We are that kind of family, no invitation needed - whanau, whanau, tatou, tatou.

I have followed Twitter before when I overheard Tosca talking about tweeting. I was like, huh!? I managed to find out what it was. I think this could work with our patrons who are into the whole social blogging, networking stuff. They would find it interesting.

I would use Twitter to spy and stalk people (lol)see what they're up too. I'm not sure my own friends and family would be into it but I can definitely see myself promoting this, especially if it's for the best for our libraries and communities.

Oohh ok I can cross that off my checklist then: 1) Don't hunt down Mystikchic LOL Believe it or not but you have a fair few kids/customers in your library area who've signed up to Twitter and follow @Manukau_Libs :) It's not for everybody and that's fair enough. Upside is at least you know what it is, that we have a tweetstream and what we do with it LOL
