Shambles' presentation at TEDx BKK 2010 from =IcaruS= on Vimeo.
A brief tour around Shamblesguru's SOHO desk and computer set-up ... without any tidying up ... so quite messy ... but productive.
I gave an 18 min talk at TEDxBKK (TED Bangkok) on 13th Feb 2010 ... was a fun and interesting experience.The talk was about learning in Second Life ... and part of it was a mixed reality session with me (Chris Smith) in R.L. interacting with Shamble…

Shambles Newsletter February 2010
The February 2010 edition of the Shambles newsletter is now online at http://www.shambles.net/newsletter/february2010
There are only three a year so not many to look at.
I'm really pleased with how this edition has turned out ... and I'm also very grateful for the suggestions and contributions received.
I pretty certain that there will be something in the newsletter that will be of interest to you and your colleagues ... please feel free to pass the link around, it is public.
One section that is bulging is that listing conferences, courses and workshops especially in S.E.Asia ... including some for the next academic year ... your staff i/c teacher professional development should find this particularly useful.
All at: http://www.shambles.net/newsletter/february2010
Next newsletter will be in May ...
Have fun
Chris Smith (Shamblesguru)
p.s. Happy Chinese New Year .... Year of the Tiger ... Tigerlicious ;-)

- I use the same combo of web tools and completely agree with your thinking. Unless you have a professional need, DW etc isn't something you have time to learn. Many of the teachers I work with are in training to become online teachers. Even for these folks, I don't recommend DW, although greater awareness of html and the underpinnings of the Internet are a professional necessity.
I'm pretty sure you could get an interactive mindmap out of most of the online brainstorming tools like Mindmiester and bubbl.us.
It's good to connect Chris!

- Chris, I really enjoyed your video tour and conceptual overview of a personal learning network. Combining mind-mapping and web 2.0 technologies works for me. http://screenr.com/md8
Shambles PLN were perfect keywords for finding this part of your site:
http://www.shambles.net/csmith/pln/
Did you do the hot-linked image chart using with html or using a web tool?
I see too that you're using Screenr.com. I prefer it over Jing because (for now) there's more free flexibility for publishing the videos. I've been a fan of Shambles for a long time. Great to connect with you online.

We have noticed a dramatic shift in the way educators are relating to their students or lack of. Have you? We held a conference recently in Houston, Texas and it was amazing to see how far we must go to reach parents, students and community leaders…
