I think Twitter Chat is something that you have to do maybe two, three times before you can say you are "great at it". I definitely and thankful I was at my computer for it!! Neat to network instantly with teachers of the same grade level but states away. Pretty impressive. The things I saw tonight were pretty neat. Something I didn't mention, but have heard of before, is kidblog.org. Here I think Twiducate is something to brag about- looks like that would be an awesome tool to look into as well. Kids blogging, that sounds very real life for our students of 2014!
All-in-all... I plan to go back to #2ndchat! Glad we had this assignment, it pushed me out of my "comfort zone" with Twitter!
I have included a screenshot of my chat, as I thought it was part of our requirement. I have to say I started out in just Chrome at Twitter... the someone recommended to someone else to use TweetChat, and I took their advice. However, it didn't seem to stay refreshed as quick as Twitter.com. Anyways- good luck!!
Sounds like you got some great resources! I agree - I had to lurk a few nights before I plunged in the first time I participated, too.
