So I downloaded tweet deck this week and think it is a very useful and interesting application! I didn't realize it was going to involve pop-up notifications and all that, but it is quite entertaining for this class. Especially for people that follow hundreds or thousands of twitter accounts, it is a great way to locate people and search for specific topics.
I like how you can just type "#edtech" and then you are instantly given tons of great resources. It makes searching the net so much easier, and you have a network of other teachers :). Overall, I am intrigued by tweet deck and like following conversations better now.

Hi Lauren...I noticed your post on "TweetDeck" so I thought I'd ask how you felt about it. It does seem pretty useful if you follow thousands of different twitter accounts, but it doesn't seem to be very beneficial for me...what do you think about it? And I keep hearing people mention edtech...I'll have to check it out. I'm definitely out of touch in terms of Twitter, I just don't like it...
