Finding Twellow
A couple of weeks back there was a tweet on Twitter, posted by that most media-savvy of CE centers, ACCDAT in Dallas, informing of the existence of Twellow:
Twellow is a fusion of Twitter and Yellow Pages. Posting your wares on Twellow is of course free. If you are looking for a service or other product there, then you can use its internal search engine or, if you prefer, its contents are classified, just like in any Yellow Pages directory.
Conductive World joined at once to notify what it does but, not surprisingly, found that Conductive Education was not one of Twellow’s classified categories, so I wrote in to make a case or why it should be. Twellow is a human-controlled service, not some robot, and after a few days’ deliberation the site agreed that ‘Conductive Education’ would henceforth be one of its categories.
Specificly, it is a sub-category, of Education:
Gratifyingly, then, here is one place where Conductive Education does not fall under health.
Lucky that I got in there first!
Market yourself on line, and in real time
Wherever you, are, whatever you do in the world of Conductive Education, are you looking to advertise your wares?
- conductors looking for jobs
- centre or programs, or private individuals, with conductors' jobs that need filling
- centres or programs looking to attract more service-users
- CE consultancies seeking new clients or customers
- conferences or meetings looking for participants
- associations seeking members
- web-based services
- whatever…
It seems unlikely that Twellow will solve everybody’s problems or meet everybody’s requirements. On the other hand, Twellow costs nothing, it takes only a few minutes to work out how to use it, and could prove a useful extra string for your bow.
(It is already mid-August, for eample, and the last-minute, desperately urgent appeals for people to fill vacant jobs are appearing elsewhere on the Internet!)
Already there
