Many of you probably know the story of my Twitter handle: @buddyxo. Back in 2010, I was sitting at the Alan November BLC conference and Alan told us that we all needed to be on Twitter. At a time when I didn’t think I’d ever actually use Twitter on a regular basis, buddyxo seemed like a good name! And so it has lived on.

In fact, I for one benefitted greatly as a principal when I learned about something shared on social media and then either implemented or adapted it in a way that bolstered the transformation efforts at my school.

I often marveled at the creative thought and passion that so many educators put into their writing.

The rest is history.
