After actually using it for a discussion, I can see plenty of pros and cons for Twitter as well as the Blackboard discussion board.
Twitter
Pros: Shorter posts means faster posts and less essays, condenses everything into what needs to be said without the fluff
Cons: Organization is hard even with the tags for both personal messages and messages to other people
BBDB
Pros: Everything is more organized and permanent
Cons: Slow, hasn't been used since the introduction assignment, inefficient design
I can see Twitter being used more often almost as a chatroom-substitute (although an actual chatroom would be much more efficient) for discussion of immediate topics while the BBDB would be better used for actual organization and long-term planning for entire projects.
The interface of the BBDB is annoying to use, though, so I would only use that as a planning area as a last resort if the wiki somehow stopped functioning and access to ANY other sort of forum software was impossible.

it's really annoying to navigate through blackboard to the discussion
ReplyDeleteBBDB is very easy to navigate and use especially for projects and different assignments. But if you want just to chat, of course, Twitter rules.
ReplyDeleteI did not like the character limits. I had to rewrite sentences every post to fit the limit.
ReplyDeleteyeah BBDB its easy and simply to use.
ReplyDeleteAnd something that bothers me about twitter sometime is the character limitation. Sometime its just hard to reply someone w only 140 letters.
