Lalonde, C. (2012). How important is Twitter in your personal learning network? Retrieved from http://elearnmag.acm.org/archive.cfm?aid=2379624#.UkKBlNweJUJ.twitter.
This is an article based on masters-level research study done by the author. In short, Twitter can connect you to other people so that you can be active learners together and you can boost each others' learning. Twitter allows for "instantaneous conversations with their PLN," "access the collective knowledge of their PLN," expanding upon one's PLN with the use of hashtags and retweets, and being an "idea amplifier" so that a blog author's work can get more readers. With Twitter around, collaboration has become even faster and easier than ever before.
