Building your PLN

LetsSing!!!!?

Well this week I was charged with getting into social media. Anyone who knows me knows "social" media is not my thang, real face to face conversation I prefer, Cancerian, I need to feel you. 

Twitter was my first stop, I create an accounted and tried to find twenty interests to follow,that was a challenge. I finally got the account set up after the text validation and here is my twitter. rondamuhammad@muhammadronda.

     The next one was participating  in a twitter chat. After watching the video and opening the calendar trying to get into a chat was not a success. I added the event to my colander, I even got a reminder but where the chat visually was a t ten and ten thirty was a mystery to me. Was it in Twitter? Was it in TeckDeck? This is still a mystery to me. I did enjoy the visual complexity of TechDeck. I did fish around and find more people to follow, read comments from earlier and enjoyed what I saw. I may like Twitter because it is short, I like the simplicity of saying it quick.

Moving on or returning to Google+ plus was funny because I had set an account up but had no idea how to use it LOL! When I returned I saw some responses I made to complete for a class previously. But as I watched the video and played around and created a community, I began to think, this may be useful. Using the small circles that were already created I watched the video and learned how to expand them to invite more people to join the fun conversation of the new community I created.

In the Google community I decided to do something fun and relaxing, natural hair, we will watch and see how it will groooow.




The connection between Google+ and Twitter all in the same place on the front page of my Twitter account is very organized and makes lots of sense. By the time I closed this blog out I decided to return to my Twitter page and take a look at things and thankfully had my first follower, my father-in-law, support comes from people who you least expect.

SingOn!
