"Social Media is Here to Stay... Now What?" - 0 views

I like danah boyd's work on social media - her writing is very easy to read and always resists & deconstructs the simplifications that the mainstream media come up with in relation to technology and society. This talk is not as research-y as her other papers, but I like it because to a tech-novice such as myself it explains some of the principles behind social networking in easily comprehensible ways. The five properties of social media and three dynamics towards the end of the paper have been helpful for me in thinking about how to understand, and manage, the online mentoring for our social networking project.

Very useful - much clearer and simpler than timebridge which I have used before- timebridge does have more sophistication and enables people to book appointments with you via google calendar - tried it,nobody did - story of my life

"The first course management system built on a social networking platform". Sounds interesting but it seems to be impossible to find out what the features of the product are..."Our design team has fleshed out the core components of course management to arm teachers with only the essential tools they need to simplify the online experience" no description of what those core components are!
