  This article talks about why a PLN is useful and why it has not been adopted fully. PLNs are so useful because they are personal. PLNs can be set up to meet anyone's needs or interests. Previously, interacting with other professionals was limited to face to face interactions. With the increase in new technology and social media, these interactions can take place with vastly more people. A PLN is something that requires time. It is not a temporary thing that can be picked up briefly to address a problem. Successful users of PLNs see that as a mindset and a tool for continuous growth. People who do not see them as a mindset will have a hard time buying in and working on the initial skills required. I like this article because it addresses so of the apprehension people have to create and use a PLN.

  This article gives the reader a simple definition to a PLN. I like the approach the author took as he wrote it. It helped to fill in some of the gaps that I have had as I was researching PLNs. Thank you for sharing. #EDTechSN
