There's tech - and there's tech sharing

People catch up with the news around the world via the newspaper, television and other media. There is one area of news I am very interested in and I have to read it every day to get the latest: technology news!
Technology news involves the Internet, social networks, mobile phones, applications, gadgets, digital marketing and computer tricks and tips - and I'm interested in them all.
I use my iPhone 4 and Blackberry on the way to work and back to home to keep up with all the latest information. I search for more information right away when I get home using my PC and laptop.
Most of my sources are websites. They also provide an indirect way to improve my English. I read up on my favourite topics - but actually I read everything. If an article is very interesting in terms of trends or the latest technology, I will read it in detail and then try to summarise it.
I am fully involved with both Facebook and Twitter and enjoy being able to share interesting technology news via my accounts.
Twitter is the main tool I use for sharing news. Because it limits posts to just 140 characters, I have to summarise my message and still keep it as meaningful as possible.
Also, I post the URL link for the source for anyone who needs more details. The hash tag I use to post is "#ittwt" - a tag devised by @kafaak meaning "Information Technology Tweet" - while "#appreview" indicates mobile application news.
I pick up everything in the news that I am interested in, translate it into Thai and then post it on my personal blog. Then I tweet it and put the link on Facebook.
Sharing is about both giving and getting. Everyone who is interested in the same topic can share their knowledge and learn from others.
Technology itself was what interested me most when I first jumped into it, but now I'm equally interested in sharing.
