As you know, I am very interested in Web 2.0 technologies and am watching closely the ideas being batted around by the leaders and visionaries in this space.
To that end, I'd like to strongly recommend the podcast I heard today on PodLeaders, featuring Neville Hobson. It discusses all of the social media and collaboration tools that Neville has been working with, including blogs and podcasts, but also that exciting medium of Second Life that I always get so excited about!
One thing that is fascinating about what Neville has said in his blog recently is in relation to the social media response to the Virginia Tech shootings yesterday. He said that in many ways, facebook and other technologies could have been potentially more responsive and provided more information for students whose lives were at stake that the traditional communication methods utilized by university personnel who are tasked with keeping the students safe.
Elizabeth, thanks a million for the kind words and the link to my podcast with Neville.
