Just ran across a great blog entry that is an excellent resource for how Twitter (an alternative to IMing and blogging) could be used successfully for a variety of educational applications. Although the focus is on higher ed, I could see lots of connections to K-12. The blog mentions staying in touch with students (even without knowing cell phone numbers); as a communications tool for collaborating researchers; as a way to get students to focus in a concise (140 words) way on a topic; and as a way for conference attendees to discuss topics, again in a concise manner.
The blog also references a number of other web resources related to "Twittering."
