While I've used Twitter for nearly a year now, I think that the signal-to-noise ratio is a bit discouraging. Edmodo is another microblogging platform that can be used very nicely in the classroom without the distractions you might encounter at Twitter. Also, thanks for letting me know that my Vuvox slideshow was broken on my blog. Got her up and running again. Best Wishes - JBlack ;) KWalsh -
