Well it is finally now and I am going to begin keeping a philosophical, personal, educational, technical, professional and whatever other sparks of innovation hit me on some idle Tuesday.
Tonight it is the inspiration for starting this post. I recently connected with other EdTech leaders in the #kcedu area. Wow, they are on fire and seem to always motivate me to want to be more engaged and be a better leader. After joining a powerful professional development day with Excelsior Springs, lead by Michelle Nobel, I had the privilege to connect with these same tweet peeps (tweeps), on a new platform, Voxer.
Voxer is simple, think of a walkie talkie, that records and collects your talks. Then think, a walkie talkie that can broadcast to multiple people. Then add the ability to text and send pictures. Then you have Voxer.
At first I was reluctant that I would find it beneficial to carry on short conversations with anyone. But I am having some of the deepest philosophical and enriching conversations with my tweeps around educational topics like, personalized learning and one to one. I love that I can hear the voice of my colleagues, and hear their authentic tone and meaning. It is more than a tweet, its a connection.
So, when is the best time to start Voxer or Twitter or a blog post....now.
