New Feed!

So, I moved my Twitter feed to the top of the blog, and added a tumbler feed for Ezra to the side. Yes, he has an art blog, but he doesn't update it nearly as often as tumblr. As far as I can tell, I can't get a feed that actually shows the art for here on our blog, so you can click on the links in his feed to see his art.

I think that's all for now!

Who's a Terrible Blogger?

Who's a terrible blogger? *Raises hand* Me! Yep, it's been ages. School work has kind of taken over our lives. On the upside, we're doing really well!

I'm a little bit more active on other social media sites, so to compensate for our lack of posting here I added my twitter feed over on the right. I'm a little better at microblogging than writing a full post for this.

I actually only thought about doing this because I'm learning about teens and social media right now. I'm taking Young Adult Programming and Young Adult Materials this fall. It's my YA semester! Woot! And as I thought about social media I figured adding a twitter widget here was something I should do. So I did. That's all for now. :-)

For those unfamiliar with the terms "twitter" and "widget":

Twitter is a site where users post short (140 characters or less, not words, characters) messages about, well, whatever they want. They can talk to people, post news, say what they're up to, etc.

A widget is a little added gadget to help people do something or access a service quickly, often from within something else. So my twitter widget pulls my posts from twitter and shows them here, so that you don't have to go to my twitter page. Super handy!
