RSS Aggregator %s
Interesting, Read/Write Web shares some Feedburner RSS aggregator stats which I must have missed out on before Christmas: and the RWW ones too: So take your number of Bloglines subscribers and multiply by 2 or 3 and… Am not at all surprised by the Bloglines supremacy, it’s one to watch.

Blogging about blogging

NOT the WebCT & Blackboard blog… Where have all the bloggers gone?
Too hot & windy today so catching up on online-ness, specifically I was wondering whether there are, in fact, any bloggers out there representing Online Learning Environments?

Swimming pools, fairies, the wind in the willows and some serious play…
Am spending this week off with the girls (summer hols before they start pre-school / prep) so will most likely be posting lite (if at all) but not off email. Am looking forward to Fairies in Fitzroy Gardens, The Wind in the Willows (maybe) at the RBG (maybe, it’s a bit pricey…), splashing about in …
