Unlike What is believed by some scholars and language teachers, microblogging can be used in the following ways. Though its limitations should be taken into accountApplications: collaborative exchange of language for higher level learners

learning informal and colloquial language

using language synchronously in real-life situation

listening comprehension (podcasts)

Limitations: not suitable for lower proficiency level learners Deemphasizing accuracy

It was easy, wasn’t it?
