Plato People

There have been several times recently, when I have been explaining to some interested soul, some program or lesson or workshop presented by someone in Webheads. And I am sure that from the exciting tone of my voice it makes it sound as if Webheads must have invented the internet! But of course that is far from the truth…Al Gore did.

In fact, tonight I was thinking about that very thing, the invention of the tools we have come to use and love. When were these tools first used and why?

In my quest for an answer, I came across a fellow who was there in the early days of “email, chat rooms, instant messaging, addictive multiplayer games, multimedia, news, movie reviews, and message forums on everything from art, science, and literature, to sex, drugs, and rock and roll”. His name is Brian Dear.

New stuff

Whoa, it's been a while.

I'm in a holding pattern right now. School is out for a couple of weeks and I seem to be fairly caught up with my life right now.

This morning, I am working on an eclass for my Polish Moodle course and thinking about how to set up a class for advanced Study Group Host at Learning Times. Actually, I am trying to figure out if I can combine the two things and kill two birds with one stone. That is, I will creat the class in the Moodle course and demo it in the Learning Times classroom.
