Twittering

I decided not to create a Twitter account today. I did read about the man who caused the firemen to search for him. I think students should read that same account! I am on Facebook and am a bit curious as to the difference between the two.
Perhaps our school could use twittering to find certain books. We enter a reading competition, Prairie Readers, each year. We often need 4-6 copies of a book. We can buy them from Amazon too but I am curious if Twitter could help. Often teachers are looking for books on certain topics. I don't know for sure if Twitter would be of help with that or not? I am not so sure how much our local community members use Twitter.
