Wanted to do a #ShoutOut to @dougholton for his leadership and support in maintaining the #EduTooters list to get educators connected to each other. Thank you, Doug. #EduTooter #EduTooters @edutooters
A bit of reflection...
When I created the EduTooters Unite! (https://tinyurl.com/joinedutooters), my hope was to connect with more educators, and to set up a "lifeboat" for those trying to find their way on #Mastodon in the midst of crazy #TwitterMigration.
Doug wasn't afraid to step up and help spread the word, both on Mastodon and Twitter. I'm' also grateful to whomever suggested/originated the #EduTooter hashtag.
I should have paid more attention, but to be honest, I made the EduTooters group in a rush before running out the door to get breakfast with my wife. I would have paid more attention to calling the new group @edutooter than @edutooters which is the group that ended up with more people.
Oh well, live and learn. There's still going to be a lot of folks coming over, and I hope all of us on #EduTooter and @edutooters can continue to help folx get connected.
I am now thinking of starting different groups that are focused on #EdTech #fREADdom #TxLibraries #GoogleEdu / #MicrosoftEDU, but that may be unnecessary. What do you think?
@mguhlin Love your work, but are you open to a respectful request? When a post of 2000 works comes across the feed, most people just move on without reading it. If you are going to publish longer posts, could you use the READ MORE feature after a few hundred words.
Thanks again for helping with the migration!
@rubicon i will give that a try! I haven’t seen that feature yet. 🙂
