Twitter Chatter

When posting on Twitter, you first do a 50-character post with a 130-character follow-up. A good skill to have as a journalist and several people are already doing well with this.

Cara Flynn followed the character posting rule very well. She pulled out the necessary information from each story that she read and combined the information together in an organized manner.

Mike McGregor's page displayed each story with the right amount of information and no junk information, so to speak. It is clear that he closely examined everything the larger articles had to offer before making a Twitter post. He has also started to follow several other people and their posts.

Nicole Bellman displayed her skill with each posting of limited characters very well. She went straight to the point and the information provided had me feeling confident that I wasn't missing any other important facts when I read the posts.

All in all, a lot of good work so far. I think everyone in class has a pretty good handle on everything!
