Want A Comment Avatar That’s Globally Recognised By Most Blog Platforms? Here’s How!

Hometown:
Perth, Western Australia
About Me:
My name is Sue Waters and I’m the person behind Mobile Technology. You may also know me as the editor of The Edublogger

“I am about practical application of technologies in education, and most importantly HELPING OTHERS”.

I have been sharing my experiences with Web 2.0, e-learning and m-learning (mobile learning) using a range of web sites since early 2006.

Many of my sites are called Mobile Technology in TAFE because my original focus was mlearning. Nowadays my sites cover a wide range of information on using technology with students. TAFE stands Tertiary and Further education which is part of the vocational education and training sector.

Here are my sites:
My Blog
The Edublogger
My Podcasts
My Wiki
PLN Yourself Wiki

Favorite Online Tool:
Would have to be twitter because of the ability to easily connect with like minded people globally who willingly take time to help you out.

I like blogging because it helps me reflect on my thoughts, my wiki because I can bring all my ideas together and present as one, and my podcasts because it provides me access to a different audience.

Sue how,s it going I finaly have hooked up. I am sitting in a class and have just created my own thingy ning site.

I have seconded over to the Australian Technical College for 6 months and have started to set up a site for student use for information and for them to display their project work.

I am going to display some of my tutorial work on the site as well when I get a chance. As part of their training I am hoping the students will help develop some more mobile device tutorials for teaching as well.

regards
Bob Hunter from Karratha

Hi Sue
Thanks for the vido - very interesting. I especially like the honesty in the time saving comments (something I am coming to realise more and more the further I explore).
Also, thanks again for the encouragement: its always good to know that there's support when you're testing the waters.
Cheers
Lance.

Hi Sue,

Thankyou for welcoming me to the community. Your greeting was a lot sooner than what I expected, so please don't apologise. It is important to have fun in the second life.

Your advice is allredy providing some helpful tips and training. I set up google reader and subscribed to some feeds.

Thank you,
Brian

Yes! Sue, please rush me your recommended Feed Reader! I don't know what to choose. I like to link to authors, principally, who might spring up anywhere, some regular programs, on the ABC, plus some sites. I started del.icio.us, but it does not do that job, I realise. Cheers

Hi Sue

Thanks for your support, mentoring role, and friendship through this Ning site.
I have had so many firsts with your help, and other members. My 1st Blog (thanks for advertising it), 1st RSS feed (I never could understand what it did until your tutorial), 1st animoto vid (how easy is that!) and 1st time really participating in online chat. Many thanks.

Now for the dumb question - you said we could :~) - I have kindly had comments on my blog, so is it etiquette to respond to them, and for that matter can you?, or is the next blog entry presumably responding to them. I don't want to disregard the kind support of others?

Hi Sue,, thanks for the welcome! No, I'm fine on RSS and Ning :-) having used both successfully :-). Sorry I haven't gotten back to you about the blogging idea - I won't surface again for a while to decide anything. Thanks for sharing this ning with everyone, Cheers
