My thoughts on using Twitter:

I have never used Twitter before so this was a totally new experience for me. Although I have heard about it and seen other people use it, I found that the initial setup process took longer than I expected. This was definitely a dislike for me.  Right at the beginning, after signing up, I was taken through an ‘instruction’ process on how to set up Twitter. I wasn’t able to skip any of the steps except for adding contacts from my email address book. I was also forced to subscribe or follow a minimum of five other Twitter accounts before I could post my own Tweets. So in one way, that was surprising because a friend who signed up for Twitter a while ago didn’t have to go through that to set up her account. 

For what I liked about Twitter, the main thing is that you can get your message across using a short and simple Tweet and direct other people to check out your postings by using the hashtags. Once you get used to the process, it’s pretty easy. Another thing I liked is that after I posted something, I was able to look up other people’s perspectives on their feeds by clicking on the hashtags I used in my own posts. Using Twitter is a really interesting way to connect with people all over the world, and everything is in real time, so you feel that you’re always getting the latest information. I ended up following a few companies like Doctors Without Borders, Environment Canada, and others so that I can keep up with the latest news. So overall, I do like the Twitter experience and now that my account is set up for English 11, I will think about making my own personal account too. Thanks for the new information and experience, Twitter and Mr. Mueller!
