The art of Twitter

Learning how to use Twitter as a tool to develop your personal learning network is not always simple, and as with any other social networking tools, there is an unwritten protocol. There is quite an art to getting the best out of it. When the Internet and e-mail was first emerging as a major communication tool set, several people proposed an Internet ettiquette, or 'Netiquette', which involved guidelines such as using UPPER CASE letters only if you were shouting. Other devices for communication emerged such as emoticons, sideways smileys that were used to attempt to overcome the reduced social cues of text only talking. We think the time has now come to introduce a set of guidelines for Twitter - 'Twettiquette' if you like - and so Wolfgang Rheinhardt, Martin Ebner and I recently got together to write a paper for the World Computer Conference, held last month in Brisbane, Australia. I presented the paper, and we put together a slide set to accompany the presentation. Here it is below, in all it's unexpurgated glory. As you can see, it's entitled: 'All I need to know about Twitter I learned at kindergarten', and is, we think, a humourous, lighthearted take on using Twitter. We hope it makes you smile, think and tweet some more.
