Blog = forum for lunatics to share their views of the world. I started mine yesterday and am terrified that people read it. In it, I talked about the future of Nibipedia and our vision for synchronous/asynchronous media applications.
Guy Kawasaki says a company needs a: 3 word mantra. Let it guide everything you do. Ours = Together We Learn
Synchronous learning (Adobe Connect/Facebook?) combined with free database and network services (Wikipedia, Amazon, Youtube, Facebook, Linked In, Twitter) will make a learning environment that allows you to come to a "class" real time, interact with the instructor and other students and then come back later and all of the info will still be there and interact later. Ex: http://tinyurl.com/cnzzo3
Nibipedia's going to be kinda' like a hockey rink.
There's no manual or textbooks at the hockey rink, there are no full time faculty at the hockey rink but yet kids still learn to play hockey. (this may be less true of Silicon Valley hockey rinks, any one care to comment?) Kids learn to play hockey from each other.
Terry Schubring won the Adobe Educational Applications Award in 2006 for developing a synchronous environment for Adobe Connect. http://tinyurl.com/ar55wj The hockey rink story is his.
