I will from time to time trace some of our e/mergers progress on our emerge 2008 blog at edublogs. And just a reminder that it is not to late to join us in blogging…or share where you are blogging…. http://emerge2008.edublogs.org/emerging-people/

• Through twitter I learnt about a teacher in Guguleto who has just created his first blog and went to encourage him with a posting
• Threw  sheep at my kids at home with Facebook (Just to show them I love them even though I am never home) as well as some of the mergers already on my Facebook (to see if they take thebiat and if I can distract them away from reading and commenting on all the papers here……mmmmm)
• Tagged a few resources that I have picked up here in e/merge with emerge2008
• Made a tagcrowd of the discussion in the “connected teacher” thread
  
• Loading video links onto our facebook group for this afternoon’s workshop
