I've found Twitter to be a wonderful resource for lots of reasons. Most importantly, Twitter has connected me with people passionate about integrating technology in exciting and meaningful ways. The learning professionals I've come into contact with, particularly you Larry, have given me the confidence to present on building a PLN to the district September 30th. Thanks for the post.

As someone using your 'lists' quite a bit, it's a thrill to be on one :-) I noted the 'acknowledgment' as well (Sue Waters spoke to me about that one, she got a heap of mail and kept deflecting to me). You may wish to correct the link here to http://human.edublogs.org/2009/04/08/the-last-letter-in-kiss/ That's the post that has the 'Handbook' in it (and within it the Why Twitter? slideshow as well). I have noticed from reading your background and interest that we share quite a few common interests (not just ed-tech but migrant, ESL students - my Masters thesis was on the negotiation of their identity). Thanks for all your hard work, I sincerely hope we bump into each other one day too (I'll just keep nagging Sue for that). Tomaz Hi Larry
