What have you missed out on lately? I miss a lot every day. It’s maddening, this Twitter Tinnitus! No matter how engaged I am at the pool, at home, at work, a part of me knows there is a phenomenal conversation happening…and, I’m missing out on it. You’ve probably seen the Twitter hashtags floating by…and you wonder, how in the heck can you keep up? I don’t care how many curation tools you have, you are standing there with buckets full of holes. Wait…take a deep breath, remember Scripture (1 Cor. 13:2).
A great blog to start at is the Connected Principals site, where a ton of school- and division-based administrators share some of their best work within their schools. Although this site does have some great ideas, there are many other administrator blogs out there which may be of interest to you. Edudemic does an excellent piece on 20 Educator Administrator Blogs, which will lead you to some great writing of administrators that continuously share those ideas.
I use a different approach to get teachers and administrators using Twitter. I have them explore Twitter before they get an account, searching for hashtags that I provide them. More info here –http://tinyurl.com/7shqn6mCraig Nansen – @cnansen

Yes, how do you keep up? The twitter-flow is fast and furious. I'm just starting to use twitter as part of my professional development. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
