Hi Elise!
Where is your classroom? I'm looking for collaborators in the San Juan Islands. Are you on Vashon Island? Anyone you know in the San Juans? Please let me know.
Funny, the 2 links in the last comment you posted to me were both blocked in our school. Had to fight to get Classroom 2.0 unblocked...thanks again for being critical of the tools that everyone else automatically thinks are great. After all, we are trying to teach our students to become critical thinkers and consumers, right?
Elise, Thanks for posting that twitter overload blog. I was hoping more people were going to contribute similar things. I was feeling so peer pressured!! (-:
