Map to the Internet Time Ecosystem
Time after time in my recent workshops on web-enabled informal learning, I found myself using my own sites as examples of learning technologies. For example, we’d walk through the Informal Learning blog to look at an RSS feed, an internal search engine, scanning the 100 most recent posts, a Creative Commons license, and so on. I began showing things like my research tools page, which has always been public but was hidden in plain sight. Previously hard-to-find articles on my wiki have morphed into leave-behind reference material, for example, Learning in Business or ...

Ah ... the good old days ... back in the Fall of 1976. I took a term off from Dartmouth, and backpacked through Europe. Now my son Carl will do the same ... he leaves tonight. However, Carl will blog about the subject. My parents we're lucky to hear anything from me. The only way to contact me was to mail a letter to an American Express office in the hopes I might travel through that locale. Carl will have Skype, his blog, etc. Thus, follow a college student's experiences as he backpacks through Europe via Carl's Travel Blog (or subscribe via RSS). I posted this comment on my son's ...

Software Engineering Matters!
I discovered this blog, Software Engineering Matters, via one of my Google Search Bots / Google Alerts. If your discipline is software engineering, it's definitely work a look and RSS subscription. Here is how the blog author, Nicholas Chen, describes himself: I am currently pursuing a Ph.D in software engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I am a programming language fanatic and love learning new programming languages. At the moment, Ruby, Smalltalk, Haskell and Erlang are the most interesting languages to me. I have added this blog ...
Objection #3: Control of Information
Objection #3 is one that I don’t hear very often directly. It is usually indirectly, because no one wants to admit it. But they do say it through the questions they ask. “If we let everyone learn from each other, we give up control of that information.” Answer: Yea & Nay. Let’s start with the Nay. NAY: There are many ways to keep control of the information. You can watch it via RSS or email alerts. All the information is open to you and isn’t hidden. So if anything goes WAY out of line (which RARELY happens) you now see it and can correct it.

Create Mobile Websites with Wirenode
I’ve previously written about Winksite, a service that allows users to create free mobile websites using a CMS-like interface (simply switching on or off various tools and editing options). Now there’s a new free mobile web site hosting and authoring service called Wirenode, which (instead of a CMS-like, “Web 1.0″ interface) uses a Web 2.0/AJAX interface to create mobile websites and integrate Web 2.0 services including Twitter, LinkedIn, RSS, image galleries, or other “widgets”. The integration also works back into Web 2.0, with a ...

That commenting helps build and maintain relationships with other bloggers, so I do see value in that. I don’t have a set goal about commenting on new blogs, but I do try to check out new blogs, especially when they link to me ...
