There are many benefits in using Twitter for Students. But before I proceed to tell you more about those benefits, here is a bit of information about Twitter that you might like to know. Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service wherein its users could share their experiences or express themselves through sending and reading messages commonly known as tweets. You can write about anything you want as long as your post will not exceed 140 characters but if you just cannot help but write more than that, there is a way to overcome the twitter limit by using Twitter applications such as TinyPaste, Bit.ly, and many others.

Twitter is definitely a useful tool for communicating since you do not have to worry about what you write. As a student, you could use Twitter to your advantage by relating to others your views on a certain subject and you can even put some links in your posts so that you could share more about the topic. If you have followers who happen to be your classmates and maybe some of your professors too, then they might find what you have to say interesting—that would be a good way to start a productive discussion. Another thing that makes Twitter really cool is that once your cell phone is activated to work on Twitter, you can thumb on those keypads like your texting, but instead of usually sending it to one person, you are sharing your experience with all your followers! And if sending tweets through your cell phone is not only what you are after, you could of course receive tweets too. Now, you do not have to go home to log on to Twitter because you’ve got the power of SMS in your hands!

Tweet with your iPhone

If you happen to have an iPhone, there are a lot of Twitter clients available to you, one of which is Tweetie. With Tweetie, you can manage multiple Twitter accounts, view Twitter trends and do custom searches, access complete user profiles, and manage multiple Twitter accounts. Isn’t it great? It’s fit for a student’s Twitter needs.

More About Twitter for Students

How else is Twitter for Students? Did you know that can help you improve your writing skills too? Well, it’s not exactly a proven fact but if you want to know how Twitter teaches students to write, then that would be a good chance for you to learn more about how you could use Twitter to your advantage. Let us not underestimate Twitter because we can all benefit from it by the way we use it. Even though Twitter isn’t exactly a teaching tool, it will not hinder anyone from learning a thing or two just by tweeting. One way you could learn on Twitter is by following people who you think you could learn much from and tweet topics that you want to know more about, and if you’re lucky, people might Retweet you (a Twitter feature that makes you “bookmark” tweets) so that more people will be interested in what you have to say or what you want to know about. There are many other things you can do on Twitter, so just explore and check out the applications that would make Twitter fit your style.
