Location: Mendenhall

Session Abstract:
- Twitter is an application that asks the question--what are you doing, and gives you 140 characters to answer. It's been called a microblogging tool, the modern water cooler, a community building tool, and (by some) a complete waste of time. We'll look at what Twitter is, how people use it, and what you need to do to start Twittering.
