I stumbled upon his book and him (virtually) on Twitter. Needless to say, it had become my bible to understand what social learning is and could be in the context of workplace learning. In those days, I was just a rookie instructional designer trying to write storyboards and grasp the basics of e-learning.

The best example is of course the way Twitter is used today. Then, there are subtle and not-so subtle differences between these options--some of the differences are inherent in the features of the networking tool and some have been superimposed by the users over a period of time.

During my daily twitter stream reading, I came across this snippet from Stowe Boyd: "A formal hierarchy overweights experience and underweights new thinking , and in doing so perpetuates the past. It misallocates power, since promotions often go to the most politically astute rather than to the most prescient or productive."~

No matter what Twitter says about getting 1000 followers and what not, it takes time. If something interests you on the web, if you have read an article that you honestly learnt from, put up the link on Twitter with a few words capturing the essence of the piece. If you pretend, you are done for. You will be coldly shunned.

User Generated Context for Learning The real value of Twitter and other social media (or, the more secure, IT -approved corporate equivalents) is the ability to target messages at specific audiences and tune your filters to the topics that interest you the most. Letting others add more context will only increase the value of their content.

Twitter : The trigger question, " What's Happening"? that Twitter greets you with is a great initiator to begin "working out loud". Working out loud on Twitter therefore has dual advantage of collaboration & cooperation as well as the ability to seek direct help. When is it most useful to use Twitter?

Both these applications make my Twitter use abreeze by allowing me to set my filters and create multiple streams.
