The Impact

For the past few weeks we have been allowed to use Twitter and Weebly to create a project called Twitterive. The Twitterive has allowed us to take the details we tweeted and put them into a multi modal point of view. The process began, at first we were encouraged just to tweet what we saw or thought. Pictures were a good way to get what ever point you wanted across to your audience. Then we started going to new or old places of interest and tweeting about our surrounding. I believe this is the turning point; where we became more focused on the subject at hand. Details became a major player in our tweets. Everything was being looked at more closely; the old tire swing wasn't just a tire swing but the symbol of your childhood. Tweeting these observations allowed us to use our technology we've all grown so found of and at the same time build this bond between place and technology. We went some where; pulled out our trusty cell phones and tweeted, this was the process.
Now the product is what is posted on our Weebly websites under Twitterive. This is where we took our findings and developed them into different types of writing. The product is an interesting combination of tweets. It was entertaining to read other classmates twtterives to see what they did with their themes and tweets.
