Chat lists can be too overwhelming and not necessarily up to date. I've learned about chats organically. Now my calendar is full of them, and I check the topics every week (and my own schedule) to determine if I'll participate. I can share with anyone what I've gathered. #nt2t A3

A4: This is my first chat and I couldnʻt have made a better choice! @LaMaestraFausto do you know of any bilingual chats? #nt2t

amynicolebettis Oct 27 @ 9:36 AM EDT

So glad to hear it!! We're glad you're here - if you ever have a question, please feel free to reach out. I may not have the answer, but I will be glad to help you find it!! #nt2t

A4: I caught the tail end of #PD4uandme this morning and #nt2t right now. Both have been very informative and eye-opening for this newbie to twitter!

Sweeeeeet! #nt2t

JuliaMcNally10 Oct 27 @ 9:34 AM EDT

A4: Since this is my first twitter chat I would have to say that #nt2t is by far my favorite. I can’t wait to get more involved with twitter chats and thanks to all of you, I have great places to start. #nt2t

brianrozinsky Oct 27 @ 9:38 AM EDT

A4 Good bet there's an edu chat based in or near your state. Chance to bridge virtual & actual networks. I did some exploring nearly two years ago, wrote about it here: https://t.co/5Nc78KsT7l #nt2t

#iNeLearn is an example of a chat specific to a state (IN) but has great topics for anyone wherever you are. #nt2t

YESSSSS!!! Tweetdeck rocks for participating in chat and just using Twitter effectively in general (for me). I have columns for different topics (hashtags, lists, etc.) so I can check out whatever I'm interested in at a particular moment. #nt2t

A5. I love tweetdeck as I just keep my favorite chats up so I see if anyone has posted and then can remember them all. Also it is nice to see the notifications come up alongside the chat during a chat. #nt2t

amynicolebettis Oct 27 @ 9:43 AM EDT

I love Tweetdeck as well - it's my favorite way to keep up with chats in real time... and it let's you schedule tweets in advance which is very convenient sometimes! #nt2t

mtartaro Oct 27 @ 9:46 AM EDT

A5 - I do not. The way I chat and interact is too involved to have multiple chats going on at once. I enjoy being immersed in the convo/side convos and prefer to have a single chat pulled up directly in Twitter. #nt2t

JeremyDBond Oct 27 @ 9:47 AM EDT

Wonder how that would work, if we have a keyboard that doesn't easily accommodate other languages... but I suppose those that use them already have it set up... #nt2t

Great point, Brian! Using conference hashtags are a great way to learn from others who are there with you or who are there when you can't be. You can't attend everything at a conference so it's a great way to expand your learning, find new people to follow, etc. #nt2t
