Twitter. What a strange word, but one I have come to fully appreciate this past year. Twitter is the basecamp to my Personal Learning Network, commonly referred to as “PLN”. My PLN keeps me up to date and gives me a connection to what’s going on in the world of education.

John Lien of Orange County is a member of my PLN. Is he in yours?

One of the members of my PLN include John Lien of Orange County, Florida. John has shared some awesome links and integration ideas with me over the year simply by posting a 140 character Twitter Response. John was also netTrekker’s first Twitter follower. Another important PLN member is Tim Childers of Tennessee. He and I met once in person, but I learn so much from him online and feel comfortable going to him with quick questions. He was even the first member of the new netTrekker’s Facebook Group.

Tim Childers is also a member of my PLN, and comes highly recommended!

There are so many other social media gathering spots that PLNs share today. netTrekker will be joining those places so we can learn from each other. Meet us today on Twitter, Plurk, and Facebook to help create a learning network for all netTrekker users.
