To Tweet or not to Tweet???
Last Updated: December 3, 2009 - 6:51pm — heather
To Tweet or not to tweet??? Recently, there was a newspaper story saying that young people (ie. 20-somethings ) were fairly resistant to Twitter and preferred the communication options offered by cell phones. (This article said that older people tended to be more receptive to Twitter.) So, what do you, my fellow librarians, think about this matter?

I love tweeting and I tweet through my iPhone as well. It is a great way to microblog and get the word out faqst about events or just update friends and family about your life. I am certainly pro libraries tweeting :)
Tweeting
I've been personally tweeting less and reading fewer tweets for some reason lately. Maybe it's the holidays or something.I know that my library's facebook page gets more responses than our tweets.
