My Twitter Tottering (aka “learning”)

Great line from Instructional Technology / Virtual Speaker Series: Gary Stager Ph.D. 2012-13
– worth repeating, but slide is gone by the time I get Twitter open (note to self – be prepared)
OK, indirect quote

Red-faced, should I hope only he noticed? Decide it was worth saying correctly

Later in weekly #etmchat – should probably just observe… Oh, where’s everybody from? Well sure, I can do that.

Oh DRAT! – tweetdeck doesn’t add the hashtag. Copy. Paste. Tag. Send. Hope my followers are patient…

Immediately got spammed – looked innocent at first – oops advert – can’t close webpage – I’m outa here – TaskMan end process firefox.exe
Check sender – 0 followers 0 following – report as spam to Twitter – would it have been better to ignore?

          Where’d it go? I wanted to show the spam here.
          That tweet no longer exists, not in my twitter.com, not in tag search, not in Tweetdeck Mentions, not in Storify
          Guess “report as spam” is powerful. Remember to be careful with that blunt instrument.

Back to Tweetdeck & #etmchat – new question being discussed (Wonder if I’ll ever go back and see what I missed)

Oh NO! I hit enter instead of shift for the end quote – What makes me tweet one-handed anyhow?

A3″How do I get started …” response to current event prompts stories – then determine digital medium #etmchat
