Thing #19 - Social Networks

When I started EDUC 5540 at the beginning of the semester, I opened an account with Pinterest.  I've been a fan ever since.  Facebook and Twitter are not my favorites; however, I really enjoyed browsing some of the educator social networks posted, like TLNing (Teacher/Librarian) and Good Reads.  One of the best uses of social networking for educators would be sharing ideas, which are very important in professional growth and development.  Later, when I'm not as overwhelmed with all this technological stuff and I'm not in college any more, I might join more social networking sites for educators so I can get some fresh ideas for my future classroom.
