Twitterfeed to Shutdown this Halloween



To help automate my posts to social media, I have linked my blog with my various social media sites with Twitterfeed.com. This app automatically forwards my blog posts to Twitter, Facebook, and, most recently, Linkedin. However, Twitterfeed.com is set to shutdown on October 31, 2016.

Now, when users visit Twitterfeed.com, they are greeted with a message about two other apps that will help with automating social media posts. I have included links to those apps below along with my initial impressions.

1) divr.it

This is the app that I have chosen. This app is capable of positng to Facebook, Linkedin, Pintrest, Google+, Tumblr, and a few other social media sites. Setup was easy, but the free version is limited. I was able to set up everything I need except for Pinterest, which requires a paid subscription for the service. As I like to stay with what is free, I will stick to manually posting to Pinterest.

2) buffer.com

Buffer.com can post to every site that divr.it can. However, it can also post to Instagram. Since I do not have Instagram, and I do not see a need for it in the future, I did not choose this app.

***************

While I am testing out this new app, there will be duplicate posts, one from Twitterfeed (until October 31st) and one from Divr.it.

What Comes First, Education or Technology?

http://www.ictineducation.org/home-page/2016/2/24/what-comes-first-education-or-technology This is a good article about putting education technology in perspective. "What has happened is that the existence of the technology has enabled you to reconsider some of your teaching methods." Technology has sparked a critical change in education. When integrating technology in education, for the most part of the 20th century, the focus was on adding technology to already existing teaching practices. “I want to get people to start from the notion that there are educational things that they want to do, or educational processes that they would like to engage with, and then - and only then - talk about the technology.”— The death of the digital native... Technology is inspiring us to change what we are doing in our classrooms and how students are learning.
