In the following link you will find all the readings for week 2. If you are a visual learner I would suggest you to click where it says webslides on the right.

I don't see where it says "Websites" to the right of where I am seeing the note to which I am replying.

(Does this mean I am not a visual learner? Otherwise I would SEE where it says Websites ;-)))

I DO enjoy learning this new tool. It's not the first time I've been led to this water but this might be the first time I've stopped to take more than a small sip.

Sorry, just realized I'm looking for webSLIDES. I'm familiar with those, makes a slide show of pages you specify in Diigo. Brilliant! But I still don't SEE them to the right of here.

In playing around here, I see some potential. For example, one problem with our current course is that the moderators are so experimental that we have created too many spaces for people to interact in and therefore the group is finding it hard to focus. Personally I enjoy wandering around in online spaces stumbling on objects and I don't worry that i might miss something beneath a stone unturned.

I know that a lot of people get anxious when they suspect they are not getting beneath all the stones.

In our play with these tools we could be looking for the ideal portal. I originally thought we should use just YahooGroups, simple, everyone gets the same email. Then Ning got activated and we find that whereas it's good for social networking it might be lacking in focus. What are people writing in all those blogs, for example? How do we find them? (We'll start working on that shortly, getting our feed readers ready ... and technorati?? you ARE tagging your blog posts evo2009mlit aren't you?).

Now looking at Diigo groups, if it has email and certain social networking features, it seems that this could be a good portal for a group or course. This is my first time looking, but the way to find out is to try things out and see how they work.

That's how we learn. A little confusion is good for learning whereas too much order can prevent it. We are learning here how to cope with information overload and a brand new tool appearing on the horizon with almost every step we take. That considered, we are replicating real life here.

Hop aboard. Enjoy the messiness. At the end of it more will be clear to you than if it were all laid out in advance. Trust us, the heuristics for dealing with all of this are more valuable in the long run than what you might have thought you would learn here before you came along for the ride :-))

You can argue against this point of view if you want, set us straight, or even agree :-)

Yes, I found it now Jennifer, on the page of the following link http://www.diigo.com/list/jenverschoor/evo2009mlitweek2

There was a webslides button there. I'm sorry, I was looking for it in a right hand sidebar for it.

Nice show, I'll make this known to the YGroup list.
