Because Twitter is immediate I can get an opinion or feedback in minutes.

#GlobalMathDepartment
Started last year Weekly online conference session (possibly the worlds longest running conference) Favourite lesson/support/classroom ideas Pedagogical discussion Worldwide participation PD that participants want and contribute to

In the UK
I have less tweeps from the UK than from the States The UK scene is smaller, and has worse twitter etiquette. Mostly ICT teachers or Primary educators Have made contact with a few other Maths professionals London, Derby, Southampton Teach Meets (Hampshire in March and April)

Wrapping up
The only time I met more teachers... Powerful Immediate Useful Seek out what YOU want Not for everyone Handle with care

And one more thing
