As advised, I've tried to engage with Twitter a bit more. I've added a post under the tag '#ox23' describing my experiences (mixed, unfortunately), replied to one post about someone's travels and retweeted another in support of a book coming out. I'm still not sure about Twitter, I'll admit - it was very easy to set up and get started, but I find the format a bit difficult to engage with, and I think you'd have to be on it all the time in order for it to be worthwhile. Also, most of the tweets I read are quite boring! It's useful for libraries or other organisations that want to disseminate information very quickly, but for personal use its value is definitely questionable.
