Hello to the world
After pondering the question whether to blog or not to blog for quite some time, I finally decided to do so. I just got back from the Eden Research Conference where I met some fantastic new people - most of them blogging, of course - and since they all encouraged me to blog I will at least give it a try. So, here’s some blog coverage about the Eden Research Conference
Stephen Downes who was there as a fantastic keynote speaker - thanks again!
Tom Wambeke who only blogs in Dutch but this might be readable for some of you
I haven’t found anything else up to now but would be interested in comments if there’s anything out there. The conference was very interesting - my conclusion is that it is definitely time for the digital natives to wake up and raise their voice. Martin Weller did a wonderful keynote on how learning management system will change and become personal learning environments embedding web2.0 but seemed to have forgotten that there were at least some people in the audience who could be called digital natives in the sense of Diana Oblingers "Educating the Net Generation"
Well, let’s see what we - the ones who think they are net gen - make of this. Thus, this blog is the start to reflect on social software from the net gen’s perspective…
Blogged with Flock

Hi and welcome to the Blogsphere. And what you are starting of sounds very interesting. Especially taking the english language as the standard language for the blogkeeps me thinking. Especcially because of the exxellent english. But i didnt found any personal information about you. But in fact - it may be i’m a little bit blind. Sorry - i am in first pry and secondly it makes it a lot easier i think for most of us, to have a little bit of background. In fact it makes no difference for me! - having a name or not. But I don’t know what about others. And in case of requests or questions it makes it a lot easier having a name or synonym or something else.
If you feel nerved pleased delete this comment.
Have a nice day and again welcome to the club

Hi Taiga and welcome to the club. Because you are writing in Englisch I try to comment in English, it’s a good practice.
Nice to read more about social software and to hear some more about you and your interests.
Let’s have fun to blog
.
Regards
Mandy
