My first post here!

Well, As I could eventually post here and I was also able to embed audio to my blog( with the great help of Barbara Dieu!!!)I decided to do something nice.Thus, I chose to record just a little of Walt Whitman´s poem " Song of the Open Road" , which I consider to be a wonderful reflection about how we should see life and ourselves.That´s how I feel in relation to Blogs right now: a challenging path that I intend to travel with joy and courage in my heart.

the first EFL Student webcast show at World Bridges

Please read this invitation from Graham Stanley in his blog-efl.blogspot.com
On Saturday 25th February at 14.00GMT, there will be the first EFL Student webcast show at World Bridges.

We are hoping for an interesting start to this venture, and already have students interested and due to participate this weekend from Argentina, Hungary, Spain, Taiwan, and (hopefully) other many places in the world. Please help us help students to connect to others interested in improving their English language skills and become more aware of other cultures by connecting and communicating with other English language learners during these webcasts.


- and check the smart little Bubbleshare mini manual from his blog, too!

So sorry that I can probably not be with you for this occasion - my grandchildren are too lively and definitely expecting my creative company at that time of the afternoon!

End of workshop? Future is NOW :-)

I love this question that was posted by Lisette in our yahoogroup!

Is this the end? I was just beginning to really warm up with
blogging. Is there another course or another level to continue?
Please let me know. I´m really interested in learning more.


yes dear Lisette, offically the Electronic Village Online is only a six week long marathon. Next year you'll have the opportunity to come back and share with oldtimers and newcomers. We would be more that happy to invite you as a co-moderator for a week or more, in EVO 07! That would bring you to a new level, I'm talking here from personal experience.

I don't think you would want to stop once you've got a taste for blogging, podcasting, wikis and so on in collaboration.

We're keeping this Yahoo group open and alive for those who wish to go on sharing.
We have our co-blog at http://blogenough.blogspot.com
And, once every month, Bee Dieu is our hostess in the Blogstream salon at Tapped In
There's also the http://www.dekita.org collaboration project for teachers and students.
You can join the Worldbridges sessions on Saturdays (for students and their teachers), and on Sundays (with actors in the field of edublogging)
And then, there are lots of different opportunities to interact with Webheads in Action all over the world.

Actually - this is indeed a never ending story written by all of us who're constantly active with this or that! More or less openly visible, sometimes with other priorities, but always welcome to jump in and share with us your successes and mistakes, your reflections and technical questions, ideas and always messing around with amazing tools - together!

yours, blogsister Sus

Salvor Gissurardottir on social tagging in practice.


about 15 engaged participants enjoyed Salvor Gissurardottir's session some days ago where she explained hands-on examples of practical uses of social tags, del.icio.us, Suprglu and other mashups. We will send a resume with all the useful links from this session as soon as we can get the recording from Learning Times (which will be accessible from my office there).

I admit I've been looking at Suprglu before without really getting the idea, but yesterday I got this instant Aha! Well, so-so, still incomplete, but now I have one page from where I could get easy access to my latest stuff, as well as share with you, my dear blogsisters & brothers.
