What the heck is Twitter?
An example of a social network
A noisy conversation in a huge room….
….but you get to have selective hearing!

Ask not what you can do for social networking, but what social networking can do for you!
Lets think about this as occupational therapists…….
Doing, being, becoming, belonging (Wilcock 2006)
Why should you be interested?

Being
Developing (online) professional identity
Responding to the activities of the culture/day
Promoting a profession you value
Being true to ourselves, our nature or essence (Wilcock 2002):

Sharing practice
Sharing of information will improve practice standards. For example, since I am certified in lymphedema treatments another therapist found me and I was able to offer advice to assist a client in Australia.

Belonging
Part of OT community: local, national and international
To a community: geographical, skills related (Bodell et al. 2008)
![Page 13: Twitter twaddle](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052508/559f5b231a28ab2e6b8b466c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Global OT community
You can have info about how OT is being done in other countries and cultures coming from practitioners sharing their experience in real time. At some point, we may have OT practice being discussed by people from continents of the planet, sharing perspectives, cultural influences, links, approaches, methodologies, outcomes,... This idea is amazing.

RT @kerrijack: friend's son was diagnosed with sensory integration disorder. Good news is occupational therapy did amazing things for him.
