20 Seconds on Twitter


In 20 seconds on Twitter today, I read a tweet from @tomwhitby where he shared this linkhttp://teach.com/teach100# to an excellent blog post about the top 100 Educational Blogs.  I clicked the link, gave it a once over, and deemed it worthy of pinning to my Pinterest board and Scoop.It page!  I clicked back to Tweetdeck and hit the retweet to our #tt4t hashtag.  That’s it, 20 seconds on Twitter today.

20 Seconds 

Because of the 20 seconds, I now have a free resource that I can explore anytime I want.  Free professional development at my fingertips.  Because I pinned and scooped it, this resource is available online anytime to anyone to read, re-pin, or re-scoop.  

20 Seconds

The 20 seconds on Twitter allowed me to re-tweet (RT) this link.  Who knows how many people saw the link, but let’s say just one person did.  That is one person who may take a moment, read a blog, be inspired and SHARE the link!   The nature of social media makes one idea easy to share to hundreds, thousands, or millions. The power of one tweet.

20 Seconds

The 20 seconds on Twitter will now feed me for months.  This one link alone is rich with educational content from the best minds in the field.  Now when I have more time, I can click one blog, read, comment, and incorporate new ideas into my daily workflow.  I am a better professional because I took the time to learn and grow.

20 Seconds

My challenge is, do you have 20 seconds?
