Twitter is a place to receive instant feed back and quickly become knowledgeable on any industries hot topics. I follow such Twitter accounts as The Industry LA, Women Film Directors, Women Screenwriters, and LA Screenwriter to be extremely beneficial in my quest to become an educated film director. I plan to utilize these tools to stay on top of my craft. I think that Twitter is a great way to stay connected, no matter what industry you are apart of. The use of hashtags and the use of retweeting can generate conversation that can solve prevalent problems. For my profession I have found it helpful that I can stay on track with the latest news about up and coming directors and their accomplishments. This allows me to have people to look up to in the industry. When I learn more about them and from them I am able to advance in my own projects.
Do you believe that Twitter can be helpful in the realm of the youth?
Yes, I think that Twitter can allow kids, teens and even adults to learn new things and to stay connected. If the users are not only focused on getting the most likes and only focusing on what people say about them it can be less of a learning too and more off a popularity contest.
How can Twitter be better?
I believe that twitter should allow its users to customize their profiles more. I think that has a lot to do with the creativity.
