Ever wondered about using twitter to disseminate your research? A post on the London School of Economics blog aimed at university academics and researchers is a user-friendly introduction to ‘Using twitter in university research, teaching and impact activities’. There’s a useful well-written short guide containing a description of twitter, its features and how you can use them effectively. Available as a PDF document and also available on issuu, it contains some good ideas on how academics and researchers can use twitter to target and reach specific audiences to disseminate their ongoing and published work.
