Twitter in The Marquette Tribune
On Tuesday, November 11th, I was pleased to pick up The Marquette Tribune and find an article titled MU Joins Twitter. The article was featured on the front page of the student newspaper, a newspaper that I typically pick up to read the sports section or play Sudoku, however the article caught my eye. After reading the summary, I have finally realized the importance of this wonderful communication tool. The focus of the article was how Marquette University joined Twitter a few weeks ago in order to establish a new communication outlet between students, alumni and the university. Marquette's connection with Twitter allows people to post updates about events around campus. At first I thought the whole concept of Twitter was a little strange. However, now I can come to appreciate this site after further reading about the advantages in using it.

I am glad too that Marquette Twitter got some publicity. Now you have to check Twitter more often!
At first I thought tweeter was kind of stupid and the more I think about it that is the same feeling I got when I first heard of facebook. Tweeter is a great tool that is used by PROFESSIONALS and a great net working tool. Our early exposure at Marquette could only help us in ways we could never imagine, I am glad I got some early exposure to it.
