I created a list to one of my courses where my students themselves brought a video about environment : A beautiful lie.It was a really good experience because of the richness of their comments. Some of them in a good English , some of them in Spanglish.I had the idea to go on with that topic so I made a list with three pages (just an experiment) I highlighted some paragraphs and sticked notes suggesting the activity we're going to do with that.Then I got the widget and embeded into my blog.

During the Blogging4Educators session that we co-moderated earlier this year, we created a lot of content on various sites. I bookmarked these sites, saved them to the list Blogging4Educators, and then looked at the webslides. It looks really professional, and is easy to share with others!http://slides.diigo.com/list/mhillis/blogging4educators

http://slides.diigo.com/widget/slides?sid=5250so, let´s imagine I wanted to my students to explore some listening sites, like I have done before, the webslides would have been much more interesting than the list of links I provided them.

Some weeks ago, I read Michele Martin´s interesting post about creating an e-portfolio in Delicious.http://michelemartin.typepad.com/thebambooprojectblog//2008/06/using-delicious.htmlAs we had started testing Diigo, I decided to start my portfolio here just by deciding on a unique tag, digifolio_carlaarena. Then, I created a list called "digifolio" and started adding the pages that represented my work, projects, thoughts, ideas, collections. It's just in the beginning, but I guess it has potential and it can show a bit about who you are, what you believe in, what you do in a very interesting way. Still lots to do, though...I want to narrate it or, at least, add some music to it, but I haven't had time (suffering a lot on vacation in Boston!!!). The description of my list, I used to add some info about the digifolio. Then, for the description space for each link, I added some aspect about my project, work, collection or thought. Well, just an idea. I hope you enjoy it. And suggestions and comments are always welcome to improve it!http://slides.diigo.com/list/carlaarena/digifolio

Due to technological advances in communications and travel, friendship networks could grow larger and span even greater distances. In particular, Karinthy believed that the modern world was 'shrinking' due to this ever-increasing connectedness of human beings. He posited that despite great physical distances between the globe's individuals, the growing density of human networks made the actual social distance far smaller.
