Professional development, especially for communicators, is an excellent use for Twitter

Although I created my account about a year ago, I only started using Twitter in the past couple months. When I first started being active on Twitter, a fellow classmate and friend of mine, @laurenmichell, told me that twitter could be used for professional development and education as well as status updates. I started to follow PR professionals and students, journalists and news sources. I used hashtags like #pradvice, #entrypr, #journchat,and #collegejourn. Not before long, I was reading blog posts (like yours) and learning more about public relations than I believe I have learned in my four years of college education. Now, I forget that not every student is learning what I am from twitter, but they should; it is such a valuable resource.
