I’ve been using FriendFeed for awhile and if you subscribe to my feed you’ll see just about everything that I do online. My feed includes all the articles I bookmark with delicious. When I write a new blog post it automatically shares it on my feed. Every time I tweet on Twitter and when I update my status on Facebook, they’re included here. When I add a video to my favorites on YouTube it is shared here as well. Currently there are 58 different sites that you can link to your FriendFeed, so it’s like the one stop shopping place for everything online!

Many proponents of the mathetic approach feel that the best, and maybe the only, way to learn is by self discovery.

Mathetics - the science of learning, coined by John Amos Comenius who considered it the opposite of didactics, the science of teaching. "Mathetics considers and uses findings of current interest from pedagogical psychology, neurophysiology and IT."
