Hey Shorty-Using URL Shorteners

Let's see how many times has someone copied and pasted and link that covers the entire alphabet and then some?  Thanks to Twitter (which I love by the way) these website links can be shortened in order to meet the 140 character limit when sending tweets.   Here are a few that you may find helpful.  By the way, I'm a fan of tinyurl and bit.ly (bit.ly tracks the number of clicks/views that the site you sent out receives).  So please the next time you send me or anyone a website link...shorten it up!

Joining the Joyner Family

Words simply cannot express the excitement, joy and happiness I feel about joining the JY Joyner Magnet Elementary family!!!  Welcome to my blog! I am looking forward to working with the students, staff, parents and community at Joyner. My intention is to post on my blog at least once a  week.  Information will also be posted on the Joyner counselor website and through twitter @jyjcounselor (and just in case you're not familiar with twitter, here's a link to a parent's guide to twitter).  So feel free to check out all of them, isn't technology just wonderful?
