Tweet backs 2

"To me, it was much more than that, it was a way to get questions answered, and answered fast."
"Whenever I had a question involving the class, I would post that question on Twitter. I was astonished at the quick response that was very common. Many questions could not wait until the next class meeting, and Twitter enabled users to connect to people outside of a classroom setting that they ordinarily would not have."
"Twitter had less limitations and it was much easier to post. Whatever was on my mind, I could feel free to post it on Twitter. Twitter allowed people to connect to one another, while blogging did not."
"The fact that I received several e-mails from Twitter, it kept the service fresh on my mind, and kept me going to the site."
"Although it increased my interaction with my peers, it also impeded my knowing them outside of Twitter. People created identities that they used on Twitter, and I feel as if I interacted with them digitally and not with face-to-face interaction."
"Twitter enabled us to create action in our classroom. There were topics that were frequently talked about on Twitter, which created changes in our course structure."
