Microblogging
From Wikipedia: Microblogging is a form of multimedia blogging that allows
users to send brief updates and publish them, either to be viewed by anyone or
by a restricted group which can be chosen by the user. These messages can be
submitted by a variety of means, including text messaging, instant messaging,
e-mail, digital audio, or the web. The content of a microblog differs from a
traditional blog in that it is typically smaller in actual size and aggregate
file size. A single entry could consist of a single sentence or fragment, an
image, or a brief, 10-second video.
The "closest resource" doctrine applies when utilizing
microblogging:
1. Student Affairs Resources
Not available.
2. University Resources

3. Partner Resources
Not available.
4. Other Resources - Twitter
Twitter is the most popular microblogging service. The IT group can assist in
setting up a Twitter account for your use.
A special icon to your Twitter feed will appear in the legend of your site on
the student affairs server. Additionally, your most recent tweets must appear
somewhere on your site as a larger indication of your Twitter presence.
