HYPEThere's lots of it!
Fry leaves Twitter
Wikipedia inaccurate
facebook sacking

Uses...
Find other teachers to 'Follow' (ie. read their status updates aka tweets)
Post links to share ideas and resources found online
Use it as an online notepad to 'save' ideas and links others have posted
Set up surveys - see 'live' results (example to follow)
Make inquiries - faster and more relevant than asking Google as ideas are pre-filtered and current
Setting up a poll...Use Twtpoll to create a suitable question
Tweet a link to it to your 'stream'...
Ask them to RT (ReTweet or repeat to expand on viewers)
As you can see, @AngelaMaiers re-phrased my awkward question!
Results come through 'live'...
More advanced steps...
Edmodo - an educational and safe version of a facebook style site
