Optional Exploration: Twitter, Badges and Widgets - Oh My
I tried to embed a widget from Library Thing on this blog, but it wouldn't post...got a message something about a break in the HTML?? Ah, well; I don't have any webpage, so this was my one attempt to try to set up a widget.
I am on Twitter, but don't use it very often. I can see how libraries can use it to announce upcoming events and to celebrate happenings. Also, librarians can use Twitter to quickly communicate information; many in AACL do so.
Kids love technology and could use Twitter to communicate quickly; however, if they are anything like my 12-year-old grandson, texting with their cell phones is much more convient as the phones seem to be attached to their hips!
