Thing 19: Beyond Facebook: Other Social Networks

I have already admitted to Facebook and Pinterest.  I also already use IMDB and GoodReads. 

Social networks have many advantages.  The main one being that we live in a technology bound world with a generation of students who are more technologically advanced than most adults.  We have to be at least familiar with social networks in order to take advantage of communicating in this forum with our students.  Also, as previously mentioned, it is a good way to connect with fellow professionals to keep track of useful information.  It's most advantageous to be current with information and know that it allows for us to create a depth and wealth of knowledge that we might otherwise not know to access.
