For my first time using Twitter, I decided to follow some local organizations and some of my favorite sports teams to see what these groups tweet about. I found that the local news channel posted mainly about stories they would talk about in their program, while something like the Chicago Bulls and White Sox posts game updates, team news, and retweets from players and sportswriters on team topics.I think that the news tweets were helpful, especially the weather and traffic alerts, but a lot of the news stories and team tweets were less helpful.
My twitter username is qog525Cara. I am not sure that I would ever want to keep a Twitter account for my personal use. I do not think that microblogging would ever be something I would want to do, especially if I were to have a public account. But for an organization like a library, Twiter could be a useful tool for getting news and updates to patrons quickly and succinctly.
