Searching for Twits
I have been working with Twitter since FETC and I am getting better at it. However, I am not able to find people effectively. I tried to search for my own account and did not come up! Crazy. Is there an easy way to find people? I am going to try to develop a list of tips and tricks for Twitter. If you have any, please let me know!

Hey Marlo, when I first started with Twitter I would find someone 'famous' and follow their friends. Coolcatteacher is a good one to look at her friends to find people with whom you have common interests.
I've been twitting since NECC and love it!

Thanks Danita- I did some of that today. Other than Coolcat (who is going to be at NCaect in 2009!) do you have a favorite?
Hello Marlo, When you are reading the Twitter responses, you can click on any of the names that begin with the @ symbol. That will take you to their Twitter page and then you can choose whether to follow them or not. I also recommend that you get a Twitter reader such as twhirl so that it's easier to read what's coming in to your account. Thanks for your comment to me on Will's blog! Let's follow one another. I am alicebarr on Twitter.
Just like Danita recommended, I clicked on my friends' list of people they follow. When you "roll over" their name, you can see their profiles. I clicked on the follow button for anyone who was an ed tech person. My twitter name is nnorris.
