Web 2.0
Thank you, Beth, for pointing out Stephen Downe's review of Paul Anderson's "What is Web 2.0? Ideas, technologies and implications for education." Great stuff!
I started using Twitter, and find it full of possibilities. This is a social media community site where the simple question: "What are you doing?" is given 160 characters (get it? 160 is the texting limit) that in turn sends the comment to anybody entered as a "friend" or "follower." Claimed as a time-waster by some, I have not decided yet, but am intrigued with the idea. BTW, direct texts can be sent to "friends" using the site as well. I have this listed on my site as well to try it out.
I wonder what this may mean for access to information. Isn't knowledge power?
