This is a useful link for newbies to Twitter, however, it is especially useful for educators who are looking to implement Twitter into their students' learning. I would love to hear feedback from teachers who are or who are trying to use this and other networking tools in their primary classrooms.

About this link in a nutshell:
"On March 10th Union Square Ventures put on a conference called Hacking Education. The idea was to get a bunch of smart people in a room to re-imagine how education could (and should) work in a web 2.0 world." (opening sentence from email sent by Squidoo Lens of the Day).
Thousands of tweets (from during the conference) have been distilled into a few hundred relevant and coherently grouped tweets.
Kudos to Alex Krupp, whose Squidoo Lens it is.
