UrbanReviewSTL on Twitter & Facebook
Social Networking & mini-blogging are not new. I’ve been on Facebook since starting grad school way back in the Fall of 2006 (seems like so long ago). At that time Facebook was only open to college students. Since then it has been opened to everyone and it has grown rapidly.
To stay on top of new trends, I’ve created the Fans of UrbanReviewSTL group on Facebook. This is an open group that any Facebook member can join. In only a few days the membership in this group has grown to over 80 persons. Members can post photos of issues for me to write about and I’ll post links to interesting articles and other tid bits from time to time.
Twitter is all about micro-blogging. “Tweets” are limited to 140 characters. On Twitter I post info about new posts to be found here, meetings I’m attending and so on. I’ve got 30+ followers before this posting. So if you are on Twitter and want to follow me I’m @urbanreviewstl.
My iPhone, which I’ve had for nearly a year, helps me stay in contact and update both my Facebook & Twitter accounts on the go.
