Global+Learning+Communities

After relentlessly searching for a community to join pertaining to phys ed or health, I came up empty. Maybe they are out there...somewhere. I'll keep looking. I've always thought of Twitter as an avenue for "The Stars" or "The Rich and Famous". After researching it though, I have started to see some of it's possibilities. It really isn't my personality to let everyone know what I'm doing all the time though. I'd rather use a blog when I feel like it and fill in the rest if necessary. Since there are so few in and around Austin who actually have cell service, it would be very difficult to use Twitter. I would be better off posting all messages for a class to a blog which the students can access on their computers. With that being said, Ning might be a better option. I can forsee it becoming a great tool to post reminders to students about homework or exams or a change that needs to be made.

It seems from the comments posted by my classmates that Twitter is almost "not wanted". It could be confusing of not useable at all due to the lack of cellphone service around the Austin community. It would just be easier to post to the class wiki, Ning, or a blog of some nature.
