Week 8: Sharing

Ook likes sharing! He likes it when people share their bananas. That is happy sharing. He doesn't like it when people's perfume makes him sneeze. That is not happy sharing. Wait, you say that's not what this week is about? Oh. Please excuse Ook. He needs to go fetch a hankie.

Thing 18: Scoop.it

Ook has found a couple of curators of Scoop.it feeds on books, and children's books in particular, to follow.

Thing 19: Tweeting from Scoop.it

Ook had chosen two stories to tweet. He is a bit worried about the way Scoop.it claims he has given it permission to follow people on Twitter on his behalf. Ook always reads the fine print. This seems a bit too intrusive. Perhaps Ook will look at his settings and disconnect his Twitter account from Scoop.it again, now that he has completed his assignment for this week. Ook knows how to go to the source of a story and post it to Twitter from there, and he thinks he may feel a bit more comfortable doing that.

  1. I understand Ooks point, about tweeting from the source, and agree with him completely (unless, of course, you are trying to drive traffic to a particular scoop-it page....perhaps because you think your followers will be interested in the whole curated topic, not just the link you shared).
    Keep sharing :)
