Twitter to the Rescue!

The very few of you that think Twitter is useless need to check this out!

By the way... love this cartoon!

New Program Toys

I am having some fun with some new programs. The first one is Twitterfox. It is Twitter but it is open only down right above the taskbar. It updates (refreshes) automatically and you decide how often. It doesn't have all the features of regular Twitter but the refreshing feature sure makes up for it. If you have a Twitter account try it out. I think you will like it.

I also downloaded a free PDF creator called PrimoPDF. For those of you that don't know what PDF is it is a file format that allows everyone, no matter what program they may have (Word for example), to read and/or print your document. I think this is a great tool!

My Tweet Map

I have belonged to Twitter for awhile and find it absolutely addicting but did not like having to go to my "followed" to find out where they were from. Problem solved. My Tweet Map not only shows you where all your followers are tweeting from but also shows you their latest updates. It is really cool to be able to see all your "followed" right on a map. It is, of course, powered by Google. It is brought to us by Minot Public Schools and Tech Director Craig Nansen. The script is by Trey Welstad. This would be a great geography tool!

Twitter

What is Twitter? Well, I just got signed on and it seems pretty cool. It is an application that can be used like a mini blog and/or a conversation station. Check it out! I think you guys will like this one.
