Digital natives and digital immigrants

This blog has now run for a few years, and (in my eyes) has lots of interesting stuff for you to dig around in - not all of it out-of-date, or too limited to the interests of a small group.

I just clicked on Douglas Rushkoff's blog link (right hand of the screen) - and then spent the best part of an hour enjoying his company. You don't have to agree with everything he says, but he sure makes you think (if you enjoy thinking).

So I watched him addressing the Google crew (a tough audience in many ways) on the subject of "Don't give Up On the Humans" - after I clicked on the slightly more paranoid title of "Program or be Programmed". If you have 50 minutes to concentrate, you might enjoy this entertaining speaker...



Yeah, at 65, I come from the analogue age, which makes me a digital immigrant...

Moving Around

This blog has not updated for a while, but we all remain busy out here.

Although the MLA has taken a sabbatical for new courses, you can still find the forum open, and for those who have taken the recent classes run by illuminati alumni, the course material and forums still seem available.

Another space opened up recently, that some of us may migrate to (you never can tell) but more on the Hidden College of Eris later.

Welcome to the Spring of the Giant Moon...
