I've learnt more through use of Twitter. Connections I've made on there have enriched and enhanced my university study, my writing and my hobbies. As a result of Twitter I've made plenty more both personal and professional connections, including BTUB (Brisbane Twitter Underground Brigade) that meets each month to chat. I've met people involved in my own industry through this social collaboration and indeed close friends of completely different views and backgrounds whom I'd never have known had I stuck to my own pre-existing circles. I've been involved in the discussions going on (especially on Twitter) about the rapidly changing place of libraries in the digital realm. At least once or twice a day I will read an insightful piece about the place of books in today's online world.
I can only hope that moving into the blogosphere will live up to what Facebook and Twitter have already done in expanding my Personal Learning Network. I look forward to this semester.
