Setting up a blog and Twitter

I didn't have to set up a blog for this class because I had already set one up for Barb's Children's Literature class last semester. Thanks, Barb, for letting me use the same one! From what I remember, setting it up was pretty easy, even for someone who has never had one. The only thing I found a little bit difficult was posting pictures, but I finally managed to figure that out.

Setting up a Twitter account was also pretty easy, though I haven't quite figured it all out yet, like, what exactly is the point?! But I am glad I have the account so I can see what everyone means when they talk about tweeting. I had an email today saying I had a new follower and it made me feel a little odd because I don't know who they are, but I'm just not used to connecting to people online that I don't know. I also don't know if I can erase the old tweets I receive. The only ones I signed up to follow so far are Penguin Books, The Library of Congress, Google, and 1 friend who is on Twitter. I don't really know how to contact or follow other people yet. I will have to fiddle with it some more.
