"Récusant toute forme de narration autre que des bribes de témoignages, une exploitation journalistique de Twitter s'avère extrêmement productive. A condition de l'intégrer dans un dispositif de veille plus large et plus structuré que l'univers des gazouillis. Bilan d'un an d'utilisation circonspecte mais attentive. [...]" par Alain Joannes... un vrai journaliste, et quelle plume :o) Après sa disparition, sa réflexion demeure salutaire -pour le moins.
"Today on social media I saw someone write gritty, gross details of her cat's stomach ailment and another person described the moves that she learned in her yoga pole dancing class (with names too adult to share here.)

"Ce billet évoque un petit bouleversement dans la gestion de mon compte Twitter. [...] Ce changement de gestion a une conséquence évidente : le débit de mon fil principal augmente et devient, en conséquence, tout simplement impossible à suivre humainement. Si l’on excepte un petit coup d’œil de temps à autres, autant avouer que j’ai renoncé à sa consultation.[...]"

"Twitter is a big part of education and technology. But what happens when it needs to be included in an academic paper? Until now, you had to do your best to guess the proper citation for tweets in academic papers. That all just changed. [...]"
"Le Totem (« Roger » de son petit nom) est le premier mobilier à relayer une sélection des tweets diffusés par @Paris : les plus pertinents en lecture sans interaction, c’est-à-dire ceux qui diffusent une information directement sans lien supplémentaire. @Paris sera affiché sur d’autres mobiliers dans les prochains mois, notamment dès avril sur la colonne numérique d’Oxialive."
"L’Institut de Twittérature Comparée (ITC) existe parce que Twitter existe. Parce que la littérature existe. Parce qu’il est possible de rédiger des textes en moins de 140 caractères (espaces compris). Parce qu’on peut être drôle et intelligent à la fois et vice versa. Parce qu’on peut être aussi simultanément dense et léger, brut et subtil, lent et rapide, cérébral et viscéral, poétique et discursif. [...]"

Twitter & Facebook -pensée philosophique :D
... du 16 juillet : "Facebook, c'est le meilleur moyen de détester les gens qu'on connait. Twitter, le meilleur pour adorer des inconnus. #JeViensDeComprendre" - compte Twitter @Achequete
" [...] Twitter, comme n’importe quel autre « réseau social », est à la fois de droite et de gauche, ou plutôt ni de droite ni de gauche. Un effet de mode (de genre, de style) y fait fonction de contenu culturel, dans les confuses connotations d’une modernerie, d’une immédiateté et d’une illusion du sens. Cette vacuité est, à droite comme à gauche, la chose la mieux partagée du monde. [...]"

A bright illustration of creative writing through tweets : Tim Burton's 'cadavre exquis' displays an interesting collaborative piece of writing :o)
"For anyone starting a revolution, or a business, Twitter can be a success. For the rest of the world, it can be a waste of time that doesn’t get the message out to people they want to reach. And for some, it’s no more a bunch of nonsense limited to 140 characters—as this infographic shows. [...]"

Growing numbers of bosses are getting annoyed about how much time their staff are spending on Twitter, according to a new survey.
"[...] As awesome as the default Twitter experience is all by itself, there are some great tools available that add some extra functionality (some of the best are sometimes acquired by Twitter). To be sure, there are far more than 100 third party Twitter tools available but many tools of them are either shady or shoddy and did not make this list. I’ve sifted through the available Twitter apps and discarded those riddled with ads [...]"
Communication is the first step to any substantive change and being able to use advanced tools like Twitter to make connections between related issues within education’s various subsystems allows for meaningful discussion of these issues.
