As we have discussed today, Twitter is a powerful tool in the online age of Web 2.0 - consumers are becoming producers of content - leading to the cringy term of "prosumers" which we will be coming back to as we go through this unit.
Today we have been researching examples of good and bad use of Twitter that has resulted in either examples of effective instant communication with a mass audience or stories of mass controversy.
It is used by 200 million people worldwide so it is a force to be reckoned with in the online age so we cannot ignore this useage.
Your homework for next Friday is a handwritten essay at least 1 and a half sides of A4 lined paper:
What are the positive and negative effects of Twitter in the online era? Try to use contemporary examples in your reasoning - ie. stories from the last 12 months.
