If you're in the neighborhood of Norwood, MA, on May 9, consider this one-day meeting on the use of Twitter for higher educators. The event is called Tweet This SIG!, and will feature discussions by technologists, faculty members and librarians talking about the use of this social networking tool in a variety of contexts. I'll be there!

Check it out:

Can Twitter really be useful in academia? Tweet This SIG! will cover everything from Twitter basics to advanced uses in higher education. Participants will walk away with a deeper understanding of this powerful real-time communication tool along with a Twitter toolkit to help get them started on a new and exciting Twitter adventure.

Whether you are a skeptic, a new user or an advanced user, Tweet This SIG! will introduce you to a variety of ideas and best practices for using Twitter in teaching, learning and research.

Sorry for this off-topic post and lack of geospatial reference. Twitter is useful for geospatial types, too, so sign up and come on out to the meeting!
