Leano, James (JamesLeano). "Well, it's about time. I think? Wait. Yes, it is." 17 March 2012, 1:56 a.m. Tweet.

Leave it to the members of the Modern Language Association to keep up with the times. Recently, MLA released a standardized format on how to cite a tweet when using it for an literary work, ending the confusion met by students and young professionals worldwide. Read more from the LinkedIn article here.

Finally, something we have all been waiting for. I don't know about you, but I have definitely shared my long, sleepless nights pondering the proper etiquette of citing a tweet. Joking aside, good and rich information are being tweeted every minute--information that could be used by a student for a paper. I am so citing a tweet for my last quarter at my university. This opens up a whole new ball game. Bring it on!
