  • what is needed is something more closely approximating fluency in another language: the language of digital environments.
  • ess useful to know one program very well and more useful to achieve a level of comfort navigating digital tools for oneself.
  • 1. Think of your computer less as the place where all your data lives and more as the thing that gives you access to your data.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • one program: Evernote
  • Off-site storage is more secure in the long run,
  • you need a backup routine
  • online access to your backed-up files means you have nearly universal access to your work.
  • 2. Let your computer (do some of the) work for you; metadata is your friend.
  • Tag everything.
  • hink of tags less as categories or folders and more as the code words in your own personal index.
  • Documents, images, pdfs, articles, notes can all have as many tags as you want. And items in separate folders can be tagged with the same word or phrase.
  • Use tags to describe an article in a way the author might not.
  • Clip articles to read later using Evernote;
  • install the Evernote clip tools {Chrome and Firefox extensions}
  • Use EndNote or Zotero to quickly grab citation information
  • 3. Learn to search, not just organize.
  • Evernote and Google Docs perform OCR by default
  • , which yields searchable text from what was just an image file. 
  • at some point, you forget what you have written or what notes you have taken
  • Evernote is essentially an easy-to-use personal database,
  • 4. Let these techniques and habits help you find patterns that you would not otherwise see.

shared by Vanessa Vaile on 28 Jan 10 - Cached
  • Mind maps are a great tool for getting your jumbly thoughts into a framework. From there, you can work backwards and forwards on ideas without the “weight” of lots of words to slow down your thinking. Then, by the way, you can use the words you’ve put down as the titles of slides, or as the headers to paragraphs or as the notes on your note cards for your speech.
  • the “stuff” of the final product gets in the way of the frame of what we’re putting together.

How to: Export, Import and Migrate Your Delicious Bookmarks - 1 views

shared by Vanessa Vaile on 17 Dec 10 - No Cached
  • It was announced today that Yahoo is shutting down the popular social bookmarking service Delicious.  So we thought we’d help you out with some solutions to export the bookmarks to other services.
  • You can choose to export your bookmarks into an html file and import them into your browser or directly import using services like Diigo, Xmarks and Faviki.
  • With Delicious leaving, you might want to fill the void by signing to up one of the following bookmark services.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • Each one of these services will import your current Delicious bookmarks. We’ve picked out five that we think you’ll love, and we’ll walk you through importing your links to each of them.
  • Xmarks integrates with your browser and helps you to keep bookmarks safely backed up –including Delicious bookmarks.  Xmarks can sync information across the following supported browsers; Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Safari.
  • Diigo is a bookmarking service and more. This service will allow you to highlight text and attach notes to webpages or create sticky notes.  And, it also gives users the option to import Delicious bookmarks.
  • import the html file or you can punch in your delicious account details and import directly.
  • two options here.
  • Pinboard is another great alternative to using Delicious. This service is a low-noise, simple, bookmarking site that will enable you to import your Delicious html file.  To do this just go to the settings in your Pinboard account and choose the file.
  • Mister Wong is a straight-forward bookmarking service to share and save websites. It imports quite a few different services and browsers including Twitter (links), Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera and Delicious. Mister Wong gives you two options; upload the Delicious html file or directly import using your Delicious log in.
  • Historio.us is delightfully lightweight, simple, nothing fancy, many of the things that are beautiful about Pinboard, but it has the ability to bookmark in a flash and be able to search for ANY word in the pages you’ve bookmarked.
  • Export your delicious bookmarks as per the above instructions and then import the file into Historio.us by visiting settings, then import/export.
  • Faviki is a bookmarking tool that allows users to bookmark web pages using Wikipedia terms. With this service, all users use the same tags which makes searching bookmarks really easy.

  • functionality of PLEs - the physiology if you will - what is it that learners need from their PLEs?
  • the three main functionalities
  • functionality is exclusive to the personal web tools (PWTs)
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • creation, organisation and sharing of content to a wider range of practices including analogue content, such as newspapers and magazines, realia (visits, real experiences, encounters, conversations) and other non-digital materials.
  • A fourth component, communication - which includes sharing, discussion and dialogue in both synchronous and asynchronous modes, can be represented as an overarching circle within the Venn diagram.
  • key functions of the PLE (Personal Web Tools component) can be managed through a number of tools, and learners each have their individual preferences, all of which ensures that each PLE will be unique to that individual learner.
  • many are interchangable for different tasks and purposes.
  • Note that the e-portfolio sits across all functionalities, and is the most likely tool to be provided by the institution

    or what it does for users / learners (who probably won't be a uniform bunch) ... no doubt I expect different things from mine than the average TESOL workshopper or even generic educator.

      next thought. question I could use feed back on: how to use a twitter account for multiple purposes, e.g. professional (whatever that is for someone retired), community, personal, special interest (advocacy, avocation research), etc. Not including elements of personal in "professional" affects voice, makes it too institutional. Tweets are a writing genre and voice counts.

  • My Top Ten Twitter Turn-Off's
  • 1) No profile, or profile picture
  • Your profile tells people who you are
  • If you decide to add a link to your profile, make sure it is not a dead link, an under construction page, an affiliate shop, or a page which launches pop up windows
  • 2) No tweets
  • 3) Hiding your tweets
  • 5) You only ever tweet stuff about your daily life
  • 10) Being overly-self promotional
  • 6) You mainly tweet stuff about yourself
  • 7) You are mainly using Twitter to sell or promote something
  • 8) You don't tweet any links
  • Check out some blogs and online newspapers for topical or interesting stories, and use a url shortener such as bit.ly, (http://bit.ly/)
  • Searching for twitter hashtags (#)
  • Some examples
  • 9) You don't interact with other users, or re-tweet other people's posts
  • Twitter is a social media tool
  • collaboration, discussion, and sharing
  • "Cliff Notes" version of advice for Twitter newbies
  • the 80/20 ratio (i.e. 80% of your tweets should be about something other than promoting yourself or your blog
