At first, I did not think Thing 7 was particularly interesting. I set up a Twitter account a few years ago, to understand the platform while I was working with arts promotion. However, I never understood the appeal of the platform. I often found myself inundated with unnecessary, and often negative, information and I preferred image-based social media, like Instagram or Dribble. After reading through the resources for this week, I realise that you can use Twitter to connect to the people, businesses, and topics that you are interested in and you can use the tools provided through Twitter to streamline your feed. Being mindful of which accounts you are following can also improve your experience on the platform.
Although I am not interested in setting up a personal account or an account associated with my current position at the University of Edinburgh, I have decided to overhaul my original Twitter account to suit my art practice.
