I've been wondering how to implement Twitter in a controlled manner, thanks!

Though I do not have a Twitter, I find this very interesting. I think that if teachers did end up using this the kids who do have a twitter would get more involved in the assignment, but I'm not sure what they'd do with the kids like me would do during this lesson. Overall, I think this is a really cool and unique idea that could probably done with other social networking sites aswell. |

Extremely important to educate all about dangers to individual lives when posting personal information--especially vulnerable children.
