Two weird social media things have happened to me this morning. In Twitter, I have a new follower who, when I checked her or him out, was following only people with the name Joan, including several Spanish-speaking ones with distinctly masculine avatars. A strange way of selecting people to follow!
The other, and much more exciting one was when I was browsing my Facebook Status Updates and saw, forwarded from TweetDeck, my associate, Donna Papacosta’s recommendation of recap of a Podcamp Toronto presentation by a current student of mine.
Donna had presented to my class and she and Reina had run into each other at the Podcamp. Social Media makes a small world smaller!
