Blog about Twitter

Although twitter has been popular for sometime now, I have just recently begin to use it and I feel like I've been missing out. I've noticed the discussions on twitter are similar to any other social media platform. Since people are behind a screen, they feel like they can are safe and they can voice their opinion on anything. They go out of their way to insult people and always show they are right. This is different from blackboard and in-class discussions. Blackboard discussion are more professional and respectful. Although someone is still behind a screen, they are having a discussion with their classmates which changes the dynamic compared to twitter. With in-class discussions, people are face to face and, similar to blackboard discussions, are respectful towards others. Sometimes, it can get out of control because some people are closed-minded and think they are always right.
