Social Media Feeds - Twitter and Flickr

6/5/2013

 
As Twitter becomes used in the classroom more and more, why not add your twitter feed to your faculty website? 

People.ua.edu has a couple of options. You can use the Social media icons which allows your visitors to begin following you on Twitter… or… you can add a feed of all your tweets directly on your site. Using the feed is a great way to stir up interest and, hopefully, gain more followers. This link tells you how to add a feed - https://www.weebly.com/app/help/us/en/topics/add-a-twitter-feed-badge.

If you are not aware of Flickr, now is a great time to check it out. Flickr gives you one free terabyte of space! Share photos in full resolution. Flickr is nothing more than a place to share and store photos. I've used it in the past, but not regularly. I typically resort to storing photos on a flash drive, which is not always convenient when I want to show them to someone. With one terabyte of space, it's a no brainer! I'm going to start using Flickr a lot! 

If you don't have an account, set it up at www.flickr.com. While you are there, check out their Commons area. It's a really nice public photo collection.

Happy Designing!
