How do you feel when you see the image above? Do you just say "Oh well, no problem! I'll try again later" or do you get a sinking feeling that you are missing out on the party?
I'd be interested to hear your views.

Great summary Janet, seems that you've been able to catch up and overtake ;-) Useful to have this list and be able to rethink the past few days of twitter & blog buzz.
I think the debates and discussion on the the private/public persona relating to the issues of digital footprints have been eye-opening. I choose opening as an adjective because I think we'd need workshops or an EVO session on this, i.e. more depth and more reflections. A huge mine field.
Thanks for the recap, very useful!
Hi Valentina
Thank you so much for reading through my quick recap of what I'd missed while I was "off line" for a relatively short time. Indeed, I was on a 30-hour car journey from Italy to Uk at the time!
I agree with you that this is a huge subject and one which needs a lot of reflection.
I attended a 6-week EVO Digifolios and Personal Learning Spaces workshop in January this year and it was very thought-provoking.
hi Janet Nicole just wanted to let you know that my movie is ready to watch!!
Haha, when I see the whale pic, I just hit refresh - hasn't been a problem for me yet.
