I have explored the tools and investigated different tweet hash topics. I took a bit of time investigating something of value to "re-tweet". Nothing! Well, that's not entirely true. But, what I think is interesting would not interest the people following me. I think my frustration comes from trying to obtain either something in my field (education and art) or in the field of those who follow me. Maybe it's more of a mind set...
Contributing to the "world" definitely is inviting. But what if my contributions are insignificant, childish, or just thought to be "ludicrous" by the friends or society out there? ...there in lies my conflict with tweeting or re-tweeting what I feel is important.... getting "labeled" as a "this or that" and it appearing more like "noise" on anyone's Twitter (again, it is probably a bad mindset on my part). To me, I feel it could be as bad as those people who tweet that they just finished eating piece of toast and are am off to the library... ya know what I mean?
Yea, I am still at the step of just being a consumer and it will be difficult for me to do the next step , like tweeting or re-tweeting. Of course the other issue is time. The more you become involved with this process, the less time you have for other things. As I continue with the "Connected Journey" class I am finding that the time issue can be curtailed a bit with the technology itself, thankfully.
In case you are interested, these are some of the topics and people I have been currently following...
