Twitter

We have been playing with Twitter in house for a couple of days. I had personally been avoiding Twitter, but I do know quite a few people on it from class including profs. On a personal level I still don't see my need to Twitter as high. However, in a recent article it's made me understand the value to academia from an instructor perspective. I probably would use it more if I had a phone with a keyboard. I am not that fast at texting, but I have a 13 year old who keeps me active with it. A new phone is on my to do lists.

Ouch! I hope that Adobe proves Jobs wrong. I think they ought to be working on that middle product. They have been strong advocates of mobile devices and i think it would be short sighted of them to just sit tight on Flash Lite.
