I admit I don’t scan the blogs as often as I should (like daily), but I came across a post this morning that made me smile. Bob Johnson, a consultant for higher ed marketing, used our Twitter account as an example in his March 4 post.
It’s been interesting to learn what Twitter offers. I’ll admit that at first, I wasn’t a fan of the micro-blogging service. Jared Smith, our fearless Webmaster, gave me some pointers when I first created our account. Since then, our Dean and Admissions Director have followed suit and created their own accounts.
Twitter has been a great resource for me since joining. Sure, I get to read all about what restaurant people are choosing for lunch, but I also get to hear about useful and trending websites like Collegewebeditor.com, tips from Tory Johnson I can share with our students, and what other colleges like SCSU are up to.
The trick now is to turn off Twhirl while writing proposals!
