I think that Twitter and other microblogging sites take some getting used to. Here is a link to cogdog's wiki that shows when many bloggers finally "got" the usefulness of Twitter.http://cogdoghouse.wikispaces.com/TwitterCycleMaryanne Burgos

Big Think ideas could also be used as topics for classroom debate. You could find a controversial topic that would be of interest to the students and have them view differing viewpoints expressed in Big Think. They could then do further online research of the two sides of that issue and then have a final classroom debate.
