I believe Twitter is really is useful way to discuss The Adventures of Hucklebbry Finn. First of all, I think it’s a good way for me to express my ideas. I can post my tweets base on what I think about the novel, but not necessarily answer any specific questions. Secondly, since we have the assignment that we should post 5 tweets and either retweet or respond to five others’ tweet, I have to read the novel more carefully so i can have something to write down. Last but not least, I learn many interesting ideas that I would elsewise never realize if I do not use it. From reviewing what other people say, I collect many important arguments that I can use on my paper.

Revisiting Twitter as a Tool for Reading/Writing
