This is an interesting breakdown of the 2010 stats related to Facebook vs Twitter.

"2010 was the year the cloud's impact became clear, permanent and more far-reaching than this slow-thinker had previously realized. Few things we did in my school district have not been in some way cloud-related - and those projects on the horizon look to be as well. My own personal technology use for both work and leisure has changed significantly this year due to ubiquitous cloud access and the devices meant to take advantage of it."

Interesting to consider some of the 2011 trends identified in this blog entry.

The authors of this book describe a path, a process, a model that they think will take educational systems to a high functioning and powerful transformation.

Some places you've never seen before for CC media files

"In case you hadn't heard, the internet erupted in an explosion of outrage last week after Facebook announced it will acquire the company behind the Oculus Rift headset for approximately $2 billion. For a vision that humbly began as a Kickstarter-funded project, that's good news for Oculus; but is it good news for the rest of the world?"

"Facebook has been analysing our relationships all along, to the point where they are able to make predictions about our behaviour. Most interestingly, Facebook monitors the quantity of wall-posting interactions between potential suitors to determine what phase of the relationship they are in. 100 days prior to becoming 'Facebook official' and updating their relationship status, Facebook observes a steady increase in the number of interactions between suitors. Is social media that engrained that we are conducting courtship on Facebook instead of real life?"

"For businesses, being able to keep track of specific conversations on Twitter can be very important. While there are social media listening tools/platforms that can help you follow set conversations, there are ways you can achieve this on Twitter if you cannot afford to invest in a comprehensive social media listening platform itself. With the use of Advanced Search or a few tweaks to your normal searches on Twitter, you'll find you can really narrow down which conversations you focus on."

A great little screencasting app that allows for annotation etc. Also includes the ability to export to many sources.

Android version of the app has finally been released.
